Boat rental in Bodø · Bavaria — Bavaria Ac 40 (2001)

We bought our sailboat in 2015 and named it "Opportunity" because that`s what it is! It`s a opportunity to live freely,to see our coast and discover places we would not have seen otherwise. "We" were Anita and Haakon and our two children, who have now become teenagers and the oldest has left the house. We live in a small village named Valnesfjord, about 40 km from the boat. "Opportunity" is 12 meters and 4 meters wide. It has 3 cabins with double beds, 2 baths and a cosy interior made in mahogany. The cabins has comfortable beds and there is heating in all three cabins, the bathrooms and the living-room. It is well equipped with everything you need to make delicious meals with tableware, gas oven and hot/cold water. It has bed linen and towels for everyone. We have used "Opportunity" a lot! We have sailed up and down the coast of Norway and every week in season, we have participated in the local regatta in Bodø. We have used it for family outings, with our teenagers and trips with paying guests. The Norwegian coastline is exceptional! We have a magnificent landscape with steep mountains directly into the sea. Norway has a long coast with archipelago and fjord landscape and a rich flora and fauna, only Canada has longer coastline. From Bodø it`s easy to sail to some nearbu islands as Bliksvær, Fleinvær or Landegode. You can sail over Vestfjorden and visit Lofoten with it`s distinctive scenery with dramatic mountains and peaks, open sea and sheltered bays, beaches and untouched lands, or you can follow Vestfjorden and visit Steigen which is just as beautiful and with less people. Another option is sailing down to Helgeland which is one of the most beautiful parts of Norway. Along the stretch you will find around 12,000 islands, white beaches, mountains and peaks, sheltered coves, islets, fjords, the open sea, large untouched areas of land and steep mountain walls that stretch straight up from the sea. In addition, you will find a massive animal and bird life, including puffins, sea eagles and ospreys. Places as Støtt, Rødøy, Lovund, Træna and Myken, are all distinctive island communities with both soul and charm unlike anywhere else in our country. We will do our best to help you find the perfect sail so don`t hesitate to ask! "Opportunity" can be sailed alone, but you might have more fun if you have someone with you to give a hand when needed. The boat is well equipped with security features.
