Default MV Communicator up for sale

This is the former home of Laser 558. The MV Communictor is currently
situated in St Margarets Hope in the Orkney Islands.

The ship has a 200 ft radio transmission mast along with 4 generators and
engines needing attention.

The MV Communicator was vandalised during her time in Holland and requires
some TLC.

Steeped in history there are only 2 working radio ships left in the World.

Recently used as The Superstation this piece of broadcasting history is a
fantastic marketing tool for any radio station.

vessel. The tonnage of the vessel was 477 GRT, 190 NRT and 575 TDW and the
vessel measured 186,8 / 29,3 / 8,7. The ship was one of six similar ships
