Explanation:
With the added context provided by your subsequent question about longliners, I was able to determine the meaning. Catcher-processor is an American english term for a commercial fishing boat that as well as catching the fish, also processes and freezes it onboard. The British english term for this is factory ship, which translates into Danish as fabriksskib. Hope this helps.
