The new boats were put to sea from the Gabab Channel and Anibare boat harbour before they were used in a fishing competition that was organised as part of the celebration.
The boats paid an entry fee of $25 each and were given a box of water, uniforms and $160 worth of petrol courtesy of Vital for the competition.
Nauru Fisheries officials conducted the weigh in of the new boats at Anibare boat harbour, last week.
