sincerely, one of the most beautiful videos I have seen about building amazing boats, for every detail, from done in deep knowledge to paddling with clear understanding of what a good technic is. Thank you all, it has been a real pleasure. Having one of your boats I would feel just like being millonaire, no much more desires to fulfill... to paddle or sail such a piece of art, what else?
I dag er jeg nesten 62 år ung og husker godt oselvaren til mine foreldre som hang på slep etter feriebåten vår. Super lettbåt å slepe, verdens beste robåt, lett å ro og moro å seile. Så fantastisk flott å se at noen tar vare på denne stolte kystkulturen vår.
A wonderful and thoughtful video production. It is comforting to know that these skills are being preserved, fostered, and taught to continue a fine tradition of boat building. I would love to visit your campus some day. Perhaps when my wife and I finally get to Norway we can make a visit. Tusen Takk!! Vince 👨🌾
What I am really admiring in this video is the peaceful and serene look on these people's faces and their musical body motion which seems to be related to the elegant lines of the boat. Wood carries with it a character that belongs to nature and it is all due to the lack of monotony of the grain in the natural wood. The dynamic lines of the boat seem to be due to the natural static lines of how the planks are allowed to take a natural curve. If wood is oiled or varnished so much the better as with paint the one colour patch seem to create a monotonous effect on the scenario. One cannot beat natural wood and its natural grain especially if it is matched properly to the role it needs to play . Being close to nature does permit a peaceful state of mind to be achieved in all those who work close to nature. Congratulations to all the people in this video on their skills and the atmosphere they create when working close to nature. Well done.
I wish I could build one of these. But being in the west of the USA, it's hard it find people who have experience with it. Land lock also plays a part to. Love the video.
beautiful boats , any amount of great wood by the looks of things in your forests , must be a pleasure to work with those materials and good teachers .I'm planning something like this next spring with my own wood , hope it turns out as nice as yours.
Brilliant! Love the push-pull rudder and the balanced oars. It is a shock that anyone would go out and buy a plastic toilet seat of a boat when they could have one of these.
Start watching at 8:09 and promptly you'll hear the narrator speak of sailing these boats, also you'll see at least one rigged with a sail, including a short close up peek before you reach the 8:40 point. Enjoy!
Hello, I was wondering how I can get in touch with you directly. I am contacting you from a television production company in the UK. We are trying find an Oselvar in Norway that we can film with and after seeing some of your videos, I am hoping that you may be able to help me.

Very nice video, thanks a lot! Was very sad to get to the end so quickly. Greetings and Happy 2023 from Scotland.
Excellent workmanship
Amazing. Kudos from Vancouver Island, Canada.

This is so cool. I hope that one day I can buy one of these
Thank you for your comment. We are really proud of this tradition. This boatbuilder tradition is now on the UNESCO list: Good safeguarding practices.
I wish I could build one of these.

Love the video.
Mavrik Hwy now we have a nice history of boat building. Google Melonseed, Sharpie, and Pinky.
I would love to own one of these beauties, BIG THUMBS UP!

Quality work and quality life living with purpose mindful
Beautiful!
fantastisk bra video 🤩
отличные видео!
Hi, nice made ... which type of wood it´s made from? Pinus strobus or Pinus cembra?
None of them in fact. The main wood used is Pinus sylvestris, while the stem is made from hard wood such as oak.
lovely boats. are there sail variants, or are they strictly rowboats?

Begin viewing at 8:09 to hear of and see sailing examples. Enjoy!

Vakker båt. Kunne tenkt meg en sånn en ja. Kansje en dag :o)
