TS = Terschelling

Fishing vessels and their homeport can easily be identified to their fishing number. This number consists of two or three letters and a nummber. A lot of European countries use this system. Although it looks quite simple, it can be quite difficult to trace their homeport. For instance; TS ships belong to Terschelling, TX to Texel, UK to Urk, but HD is Den Helder, where you would expect DH. These shrimpers belong to Terschelling, an easy puzzle this time.
