Roy:

Our resident VOS expert says that there is no Hesperides or BIO 
Hesperides in our database; so far we have just one instance of data here.

I think the best way out of this mess would be to designate 29HE as Hesperides [multiple hulls], use 29AN for the research vessel (I assume Marilynn gave you that code in an e-mail that missed the list) and if ICES need it set up another code for the tanker.

There WAS a Hesperides, (subsequently renamed Carmela B) operating from May 1982 until January 1997 with the callsign EDQP, but she was a tanker not a research vessel.  So, we should in fact use 29HE for this ship and the new code (29AN?) for the research vessel.
