Better weather, better times...


The weather has been improving a lot these last few weeks and spring is just around the corner. The fleet is being prepaired for the summer and the boats taken to shipyard one after another.

Náttfari was put up in Húsavík shipyard as usual but due to lack of space Knörrinn had to be taken to Akureyri, an 8 hour sailing away. The other two, Bjössi Sör and the schooner Haukur are waiting their turn.

The schedule starts running on May 1st. and everyone is looking forward to North Sailing´s 10th Whale watching season and the arrival of foreign as well as icelandic visitors.
