01 — Drawings

We start with the drawing,
not the hull.

Every hull begins on paper: lines plan, general arrangement, structure and stability. Two sheets are shown here; the empty slots are drawings being cleared for release.

Why BLH Ship

Specification certainty,
before you wire a deposit.

Buying a vessel across borders is a trust problem. We remove the guesswork with documents, inspections and a fixed price.

Certified & class-ready

CCS, CE and fisheries-register documentation supplied as standard. Third-party survey welcomed before shipment.

Fixed, transparent pricing

FOB or CIF quote in USD, itemised by hull, machinery and gear. No surprise add-ons at the port.

Built, not assembled

Our own yard cuts the steel. Hull, piping and electrical are completed by the same team that surveyed them.

One contact, 72h replies

A named English-speaking engineer handles your order end to end — quote, build photos, loading, after-sales.

Export logistics in-house

Break-bulk, container and RoRo shipments arranged to Africa, SE Asia, Middle East, CIS and Latin America.

Spares for 10 years

Engine parts, shafts and deck hardware kept on shelf — we still supply vessels built in 2012.

Our capability

A working fishing-yard,
not a trading office.

We fabricate, launch and sea-trial in the same facility. That means we can show you the hull under construction, photograph the welds you asked about, and settle a spec change in days — not email chains.

  • Steel plate cutting and hull assembly in-house
  • Machinery installation, shaft alignment and sea trials
  • Independent inspection welcome (SGS, BV, Intertek)
  • Client visits and live video walkthroughs on request

“The specification sheet matched what arrived at the port — that has not always been our experience with other suppliers. The build photos every two weeks made the deposit easy to approve.”
