Nafanua is a Pacific Forum patrol vessel operated by Western Samoa's Police.[1] Like her 21 sister ships she was built in Austalia. After the United Nations Convention on the Laws of the Seas extended maritime nations' Exclusive Economic Zones to 200 kilometers Australia agreed to give its smaller neighbours in the Pacific Forum patrol vessels of their own, so they could police their own sovereignty. Nafanua is the ship Australia gave to Samoa.
Design
The Nafanua, and her sister ships, were designed to use commercial off-the-shelf components, not cutting edge, military-grade equipment, so that they would be easier to maintain in small, isolated shipyards.[1]
Operational history
In September 2014 the Nafanua rescued four fishermen from American Samoa, whose vessel had broken down, who were found adrift 185 miles south of Apia.[2]
In October 2014 the government agreed for the Nafanua to patrol neighbouring Cook Islands's waters, because their patrol vessel, the Te Kukupa, was undergoing a major refit, in Australia.[2]
Replacement
Australia started building a class of replacements for the original Pacific Forum patrol vessels, in 2017.
