GulenSkyss AS enters into a contract with Fjellstrand AS for the construction of a new electric ferry

Fjellstrand AS has signed a contract with the local shipping company GulenSkyss AS for the construction of a new and modern electric ferry. GulenSkyss shares our values with focus on sustainability, the environment and innovation, and we are both proud and happy that we have been chosen as the supplier of the vessel.
The new vessel will have very low energy consumption and has been developed with optimal operation and environmental friendliness in mind. The ferry is specially adapted for the Breistein – Valestrand route, where it will be put into operation from November 29, 2027. It will have the capacity to transport up to 50 cars and will ensure an efficient, safe and comfortable travel experience for all travelers on the route.
We would like to thank GulenSkyss for their trust, and look forward to the cooperation in connection with the contract.
