This is my favorite boat in the islands, it was before I even got there. You can see Moon's yellow house in the distance :)

Here is a closer look at "my" boat :)



Harvesting Laminaria hyperborea, a seawed, is carried out in Norway with these boats. Below, the crane has just lifted aboard the rake and its load of seaweed. Prongs of the rake are visible on the right-hand end.



In Norway the alginate industry originally used Laminaria digitata, a seweed, but as the industry expanded its market, it became necessary to exploit the Laminaria hyperborea "forests". A harvesting vessel was designed specifically for this purpose. The harvesting is done by dragging a large rake-like device through the seaweed bed where it cuts the plant near the holdfast. It is fixed to a crane on the boat and after about two minutes of dragging the crane lifts the rake and its catch (about 2 tonne) into the boat (above). A boat can carry up to 130 tonne, and when full it takes its load to a storage silo where it is chopped and stored in a formalin solution. When more raw material is required by the factory, it is then taken there by a larger ship. The harvesting areas are divided into five parts and harvesting is by rotation every fifth year, allowing the beds to recover. A study has found that while harvesting by this method removed all the adult kelp plants, small kelp plants were left undisturbed and, with the improved light conditions, they grew to a height of at least 1 m within 2-3 years.
