Eidesvik & Co As big new ship!<\/p>\n
The ship isn\u00b4t finished until December \/January, but the Christening of the ship is already on Friday, so I\u00b4ve spent the past two days onboard decorating.<\/p>\n
Johannes Hjelland and Tanja Huglen and I have contributed with a third each in the decor on this GRAND ship.<\/p>\n Above is a 240 cm long cut and painted, wooden picture. Part tradition (the \u201crosepainting\u201d is a part of the norwegian folk-culture), a little mythology ( Poseidon arrives riding a wave) and part decoration (it was fun to break free from the square frame for once!)<\/p>\n More pictures from onboard:<\/p>\n Same picture in a setting:<\/p>\n \u201cRow without oars\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n \u2026and in a setting:<\/p>\n \u201cLock away\u201d<\/p>\n \u2026and in setting:<\/p>\n \u201cThese boots were made for fishin\u00b4\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n \u2026and in a setting (even though the curtains aren\u00b4t up yet). And yes, those are real leather couches. And real wooden floors. It\u00b4s like a floating hotel!<\/p>\n \u201cThe back-seat\u201d:<\/p>\n \u201cTufte\u201d I don\u00b4t know what that would translate in to in English, it doesn\u00b4t say in the dictionary. It\u00b4s the wooden thing you sit on in a rowing boat. <\/p>\n \u201cblue boathouse\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThe old school-door\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Below is an excert from a local newspaper:<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.h-avis.no\/article\/20081027\/NYHETER\/348494320\/1058\/AKTUELT<\/a><\/p>\n \u00abViking Poseidon\u00bb is the first of three new Eidesvik-ships with the revoulutionary X-BOW-design. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The 130 meter long ship will be a base for advanced underwater-vehicles, so-called ROVs. These will inspect and repair offshore-installations in the Mexican Gulf, which have been badly beaten by hurricanes the past years. <\/p>\n Under normal circumstances a number of 70 \u2013 80 people will be working here. All in all there is room for a crew of 106 onboard. 14-15 of those will be Norwegian, most of them from B\u00f8mlo, where Eidesvik Shipping is based.<\/p>\n Seahouse from Lofoten in the Conference room<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.spindelmaker.com\/wp-content\/img_7727.jpg\" "\\"img_7727\\"")
