Båtfolket gleder seg
Luft under kjølen etter vinterdvalen 

Kranfirmaene har masser av sjøsettingsoppdrag for tiden. For nå er vårpussen stort sett unnagjort og båtene har ikke mer på land å gjøre. Så i dag fulgte vi kranfører Nils Mikal Sørhaug og båteier Terje Nesheim under sjøsettingen i Smedasundet.

Noen av dagens bilder er tatt på Ballastkaien (vis a vis Rica Maritim), hvor det er flere slags aktivitet for tiden. For ved siden av båtpuss og sjøsetting, arbeides det intenst med klargjøring til Ola Flytt-dagen 3. juni.  I går ble skulpturen montert, innpakket i presenning. Lørdag om 2 uker blir den avduket. Samtidig vil vi nok bli grundig minnet om Ola Flytt og hans plass i Haugesunds historie. Mer om dette i løpet av kort tid.

English:
The mobile crane companies do lot of small boat launching these days. Most owners have finished their spring boat cleaning and rehabilitation, and the boats ( and their crews) want salt water under the keel.

Some of the pictures of today are shot on what they called the ballast quay in the old days. Here people work on and launch their boats, and a group of volunteers work hard to finish the Ola Flytt-park before june 3. - the memorial day of this local celebrity - beeing a rowing ferryman in the last century. We even have songs about him. Now he even will get his well deserved monument. There will be a Haugesund Today-issue in advance of this occasion - and of course - on the June 3.

Og så går turen til hytta i Viksefjorden
Just launched - soon on his way northwards to the Vikse fjord

Flytten ble og sjøsatt i dag. I juni er den i aktivitet igjen i sundet.
The "Flytten", a former small passenger ferry, was launched, too.
