New Britain to Norway Ferry

[canman]

Wonder what it might cost taking the caravan over for 2 or 3 weeks in june!

It really is a right fanny on sorting tubes and weights-that's why I liked Phil at Skarnsundet, Rod reels rests baits and even a floaty suit supplied. And a bloody tackle shop on site. Phil even lent us some spinning gear when he gave us a boat for a couple of days and it was ace gear.

Why don't you just cut out the middle man Mick and take fish over with you...then all you would need to do is step outside, chuck yourself on the ground like you've slipped over and you'd have the complete Package ha ha

On a serious note, I know a few lads who would love to go over but don't like Flying, they'd love the Ferry

i used to take my car instead of flying when i was working over there, a night on the Ferry is mint, Bergan good for a bevvy....................but speed limit and terrain will make a car journey further up a long one, and maybe other ferries to get across places, especially coming home when ya buggered.......

Newcastle at xmas time used to be flooded with norskies over here shopping and in Tiffs for a night out

i can't see them putting them back on..........nice to think so tho

If I ever went to Norway I'd love to take my car just drive it through the country. And I don't like the idea of my rods going through baggage at airports.

I believe Bergen was the ferry port for the previous UK to Norway service so if it's Bergen again it isn't much good if you want to fish the Northern camps.
Bergen's located in the South so getting to the Northern camps such as Soroya, Sandland Brygge or Skjervoy will be a hassle. It would be a fabulous car journey if you had the time to do it but for working guys with limited holidays, I reckon flying to Oslo and then on to Alta or Tromso will still be the quickest and most cost effective.
Of course Bergen has an airport but I don't think they fly direct to Tromso or Alta so you would have to fly from Bergen to Oslo and then change flights. Looks like a recipe for lost baggage and/or rod tubes!!!!
