Skrúður

Story

Skrúður was originally built as an ambulance boat in Norway but was brought to Iceland in 1988 to serve as a ferry boat. It came into the hands of the Elding family in 2012 and will be used mainly for private tours and as a ferry boat to Viðey Island. We have made a few changes to the boat to make it more suited to the adventures at sea we offer.
