On 26 August 2015 at Onezhsky shipyard in Petrozavodsk ice-reinforced working motorboat of ST23WI-M project was laid down.   

FSUE “Rosmorport” intends to use the motorboat in southern seaports of the country. Navigability of the new vessel will allow it to operate in severe weather conditions and on high seas with the rise and fall of the waves of 3.5 m.

The motorboat is the second vessel laid down at Onezhsky shipyard after the yard had restored its activities in June 2015.

The stock of orders for 2015 – 2016 implies also construction of three dump scows, two boyage vessels and three working motorboats.
