Hildur starts sailing

Last Saturday, July the 31st, at 16:00 hours our new schooner Hildur sailed its first whale watching tour. A four hour voyage of NS-2, Whales, Puffins and Sails, and the tour was successful! Hildur is a two masted schooner, takes up to 50 passengers and is thus the third largest vessel in our fleet. We hope this to be the start of a long and prosperous career for Hildur with North Sailing.

 

The following are a few photos our guide Halla Marín took before departure on Saturday.
