Recommended arrival - ferries:
From Hirtshals (DK) to Kristiansand or Stavanger (N). We are happy to help you choose the cheapest ferry ( Colorline or Fjordline ) and can book it for you if you wish.
The journey time to the objects in the region is approximately 1 hour 30 minutes. The long-distance buses go directly to Lyngdal from Kristiansand or Stavanger. From Lyngdal there is another bus connection to Farsund (the driver will stop on request).
directions
After leaving the ferry/customs, follow the signs to Stavanger/Flekkefjord (E 39).
There are automatic toll booths on the route. Please log in to autopass.no and register your vehicle there. If you want to drive through the Autopass lanes without registering, you will later receive an invoice for the fees incurred. Leave the E39 at the Lyngdal exit and then drive towards Farsund. Follow RV 43 towards Farsund. Shortly before reaching the Farsund Bridge, turn left onto FV666 with the sign "Espeland". Follow the road for approx. 2.5 KM. Then turn right onto the small road to the holiday home.
If you have never driven this route before, it is advisable to prepare yourself with a route planner or a road map. Please remember to stock up on Norwegian kroner in Lyngdal. You will need these for shopping and to pay the deposit.
Boat additional costs:
Included are the costs for boat rental, berth and inventory as described, hull insurance according to Norwegian law with up to 1000 Euro deductible depending on boat type and insurance, the necessary safety features and equipment according to Norwegian law.
Exclusive and not included in the rental price: insurance for passengers and accident protection, personal liability insurance, excess coverage, consumables, fuel and lubricants.
Note: On uneconomical and very fast journeys, boats also consume significantly more fuel.
Rental deposit in cash:
The rental deposit is 350 euros, which must be paid on site when taking over the boat and will be immediately refunded to the renter if the rental property is returned in good condition.
Boat insurance - hull:
The boat is generally covered by hull insurance under Norwegian law. The excess in the event of damage is up to 1000 euros, depending on the boat. The amount of the excess can vary; this should be requested from the boat owner when taking over the boat and documented on the checklist. Personal items are not insured. The insurance is not liable for accidental damage suffered by people travelling on the rental property. The renter is liable for damage and loss to the boat if the damage is not covered by the insurance. Damage also includes consequential damage. The landlord/owner can retain the deposit paid until the damage is repaired. The excess per claim is to be borne by the renter and may differ from the deposit. If the boat is returned without defects, the deposit will be refunded immediately. Any damage not covered by the deposit or insurance must be compensated by the renter immediately before departure. The renter undertakes to report any damage, collisions, other unusual occurrences or complaints to the landlord/owner immediately.
boat license:
Guests born before January 1, 1980 do not need a license for motorboats of this class in Norway. For younger people, a boat license for boats with more than 25 HP is mandatory.
Binding rules of conduct - tenant's liability:
We recommend refraining from drinking alcohol on board.
The renter is liable for damage caused by himself and also for all damage caused by other users of the boat. The renter and all other users use the boat at their own risk. The renter informs his crew in good time that they will take out appropriate insurance against damage events before the start of the trip. In addition, the boat operator must familiarize the crew with the boat technology and the contract conditions and ensure that all passengers wear life jackets on trips.
If the fish are cleaned on the boat or on a filleting table on the jetty, please dispose of the fish waste at sea and not in the harbor basin. Always cover fish waste (seagulls).
Territory restriction:
Trips are only permitted in the adjacent and suitable waters of the home port and near the coast.
A minimum distance of 100 meters must be maintained from fish farms or similar facilities. Failure to comply with maritime regulations may result in immediate termination of the rental agreement by the landlord/owner. Any claims by the tenant are then deemed to be forfeited.

Equipment and inventory will be handed over/taken over according to the checklist.
Location: Handover with driving instructions and return is at the berth.
Handover: after 14:00 h or after consultation with the owner
Return: by 11:00 am on the last rental day or by arrangement with the owner.
