Veøy & Bolsøy – two sisters on the fjord

You are now travelling on one of two nearly identical ferries – Veøy or Bolsøy. You might see the sister ship passing by, just like in the image, or perhaps you meet mid-fjord. This is no coincidence. These two ferries are built to operate together – like a perfectly coordinated team on the water. Both vessels were introduced to serve some of the busiest and most weather-exposed routes along the Norwegian coast. Here, between steep mountains and deep fjords, high demands are placed on stability, precision, and reliability. These ferries are therefore designed to handle tough conditions, while still providing you with a safe and comfortable journey. Their names also carry history. Veøy was once an important trading and church site in Romsdalen, while Bolsøy has roots in old rural communities with long maritime traditions. In this way, the ferries connect past and present – just as they connect the communities along the fjord. So the next time you see the other ferry glide past, you’ll know you’re not just passing another ship – but a close relative, built for the same purpose, on the same fjord.
