Winter storage in Norway west cost for sailboat

[Kaptah]

Hi,

I am looking for winter storage on hard for my 36ft sailing boat for next winter. I tried searching from this forum and with google, but with not great results. Preferably from Bergen to Trondheim, but I can travel further if needed.

Any recommendations of the facilities. Or pointers to online sites offering such services.

any help greatly appreciated.

Hi
How did you get on with over wintering in Norway, I'm hoping to leave our 39ft boat there for winter 23/24 Bergen to Alesund area.

I'm following up on this thread to see if there were any Norway haul-out recommendatinos for wintering, especially near Bergen. Thanks!

Hi AtlanticX,
sorry for the late reply! I was searching for a place to haul out my boat in particular near Bergen but failed. I found two options near Stavanger and I can tell you next year more about my experience.

Hi,


I stored my boat in Bergen this winter, at Bildøy Marina:

The cost was approx €1,203 from October to April (£1,031). They charged 450 NOK per foot (€38 or £33). My boat is a Hallberg Rassy Monsun 31. This cost included lifting and powering washing, storage, and putting the boat back in the water. They charge extra for electricity- a small standing charge of around €15 per month and then whatever electriity you use. I had a dehumidifyer hooked up and it cost approx €35 per month.

I would have been allowed to stay on the boat if I wanted, but they have no toilets or showers. They were very helpful, they stored my starter battery inside and even gave it a charge in January without me asking them to.


Transport to and from Bergen is easy, bus number 360 from the central bus station to the bus stop here:

Takes around 30 mins and regular buses.


My boat is registered in Norway, but i'm not sure they care, they didn't ask me for any information about that or insurance.


One thing to note is that just outside the marina there is an electricity line that's at 20m, so bear that in mind for the height of your mast.



Hope that helps,


Richard
