Biography
Skreien is a small sailing cargo vessel built in Kristiansund (North-West Norway) in 1909 for transporting fish. In the winter she brought salted cod from the North of Norway to Kristiansund. Here it was dried and shipped to Portugal, Spain and Brazil as “Bacalao”. After 65 years in shipping, a major restoration work was initiated to recreate her time under sail. Today, her home port is Isegran (Fredrikstad) and is operated by Foreningen Skreien.
