EBBA AAEN (E 509) was ordered in 1931 by Christian Mourits Jensen Aaen, Esbjerg, at NP Jensens Skibs & Bådebyggeri, Esbjerg, at the same time as the DAGMAR AAEN (E 510), which is now owned by German polar researcher Arved Fuchs is used by this as an expedition ship. The type of ship was referred to as a "shark" because these ships were the first trawlers to install an auxiliary diesel and therefore returned faster to the fishing areas and back into the ports for better catches and prices.

The EBBA AAEN was recorded on 18 March 1931 in the Danish Ship Register. From 1954-1972 the cutter was owned by the fisherman Klaus Christian Jensen, Esbjerg. In 1959 he became the first Esbjergkutter a 6-cylinder Volvo Penta diesel 125hp diesel engine (MD96).
