Luckenbach And Lavino Named Agents For Cuban Fishing Fleet In U.S.A.

Luckenbach International Corporation of 21 East 66th Street, New York, N.Y. 10021, in conjunction with its associate, Lavino Shipping Company, headquartered in Philadelphia, Pa., have been appointed agents for the Cuban fishing fleet in the United States.

An agreement between the Cuban Government, headed by Orlando Muniz, Chief Inspector for International Fishing Regulations, and the United States Government was signed on December 6, 1977, in Washington, D.C. The first vessel, the Playa Duaba, arrived December 10 in New York Harbor and anchored at the Bay Ridge fiats.

The ships will fish on the Grand Bank on a trial basis, with the expectations of increasing the size of the fleet in 1978, based on the outcome of current negotiations between the two governments.

This is the first time a Cuban vessel has called legally at an American port since the breakoff of relations between the two governments in the 1960s.
