Deutsches Fischkombinat, founded in 1950, operated nearly 200 ocean-going fishing vessels in fleets based at Rostock and Sassnitz. Rostock had stern-trawling factory ships and carriers, Sassnitz smaller factory ships and trawlers. After reunification Rostock’s fleet was privatised, but Rosanoski rejects the claim that the whole organisation’s fleet was dissolved, noting that Sassnitz remnants remained government-controlled. Rostock became Rostocker Fischfang Reederei in 1990 and Mecklenburger Hochseefischerei in 1992 in one account; acquisition by Parlevliet & Van der Plas is dated 1998 or late 2000.
