Built by true boat builders

Whether you decide on a Faurby Yacht, a Nordic Cruiser or Nordship Yacht, all our yachts are built by true boat builders and the common theme of handcrafted quality runs all the way through our brands.

There are easier, faster and more economical ways to build a boat, we know this, but we wouldn’t be true boat builders if we built boats that way, we couldn’t call ourselves craftsmen, and we couldn’t say we’ll build your boat the best way we know. We take pride in every boat we create because we want you to be proud of your yacht, so you know you made the right decision by letting us build your dream boat.

Our craftsmanship and enthusiasm to accommodate the wishes of our customers is what makes True Boat Builders special. Visit our gallery to see the many ways in which the high-quality bespoke work of our Danish craftsmen has helped our owners to sail away in their dream yacht.

True Boat Builders was formed by combining two companies (and three brands) with a shared ethos of hand-building high-quality custom-built yachts. Nordship Yachts, Nordic Cruiser and Faurby Yacht are all built in their own unique way by Danish craftsmen, for discerning owners.

True Boat Builders is the parent company for three unique Danish brands that are renowned worldwide for their uncompromising quality and attention to detail. All three brands are built by carefully selected master craftsmen at our factory in Lunderskov, Denmark. From the layup of the hull to the fitting of the deck, the process of hand-building yachts is carried out completely in house for maximum quality control and optimum customer service. We pride ourselves on our ability to truly adapt and customise your yacht for you, whether that’s in the style of the joinery, the layout of the boat or achieving what other boatbuilders cannot.

We are here to make your dream yacht a reality.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you whether you are looking for the right yacht, winter storage of your yacht or maintenance and repair by our specialized craftsmen

• Destinations
• NORTHERN EUROPE

Are you fascinated by the ancient, mysterious world of the Vikings? Well, you can get close to it with a heavenly yachting cruise to the western Scandinavian country of Norway.

With its dramatic fjords, pristine landscapes, exquisite coastal scenery, the Midnight Sun, and deeply evocative culture and history, Norway lives up to its top billing as a truly fascinating travel destination.

What better jumping-off point than Bergen? You cannot help but be impressed. It’s one of a kind — not only is it the southern gateway to the kingdom of the fjords, it is Norway’s ancient capital, and stunningly beautiful to boot. Located on the southwestern coast, it is surrounded by mountains and fjords guaranteed to take your breath away.

There’s an extensive list of activities on offer: glacier walking, fishing on a working whale boat, kayaking, rafting, golfing at one of several first-class golf centres, and horseback riding in remote and wild landscapes. Not to mention the popular pastime of hiking in some magnificent mountains, or opting for a cable-car ride to get a bird’s eye views of the town, the jagged peaks, the fjords... You can even sample whale-meat stew!

There are enough exhilarating adventures to keep you entertained for months. Little wonder that visitors keep returning. You’re guaranteed to fall in love with Bergen’s charms.

Bergen is a yacht-lover’s paradise, strategically situated as it is between two imposing fjords: Hardangerfjord and Sognefjord. Hardangerfjord is dubbed the queen of fjords for its unspoilt beauty, while Sognefjord can boast of being the largest natural fjord in the world.

Cruising between the imposing cliffs, past emerald green clearings and pretty coastal towns cannot but overwhelm you, offer hours of ultimate relaxation and a multitude of sweet memories.

Flam reflects the adage that dynamite comes in small packages. You will quickly be seduced by the charms of this tiny village, certainly one of Norway’s most dramatic and spectacular sites.

Close your eyes and imagine myriad waterfalls, deep valleys, steep cliffs, seals, eagles, frothy local beer, log fires in cheerful restaurants, reindeer stew, fresh salmon, and dazzlingly beautiful hiking trails.

Take a trip on the impressive Flåm Railway or explore the Aurlandsfjord and Nærøyfjord. Your view will be one of perfectly transparent, turquoise water, playful porpoises, jagged cliffs, snow-capped mountains, rushing waterfalls and soaring seagulls.

You may have to pinch yourself as reminder that it’s the 21st century and you’re on a luxury yachting vacation — not a medieval quest on a Viking ship.

Whether you choose to hike the trail to the top of Brekkefossen waterfall, visit the railway museum, take a ride on the famed railway or sample freshly caught salmon from pure mountain rivers, you are sure to be bewitched by this tiny village in its grand surrounds.

There are scores of reasons to include Olden in your northern yachting adventure, but here’s a great one for starters: the Briksdalsbreen glacier hike. You will be rewarded with panoramic views, gushing waterfalls, a shimmering lake left behind by the retreating glacier, verdant forests and wonderfully fresh air.

The joy of arriving in Olden on your own luxury yacht is the icing on Norway’s cake. You will be spared the nuisance of tourist throngs, guided tours and manic picture snapping.

On your yachting vacation, you can enjoy the magnificent sites with exclusivity, discernment and tranquillity.

Visit the famous Briksdalen glacier, a magnet for visitors drawn by its setting between roaring waterfalls and high peaks. Located in Jostedalsbreen National Park, you can visit the glacier on foot or catch a ride with one of the so-called “trollcars”. The hike takes less than an hour, is only moderately strenuous and well worth the effort. You can rest along the way and take a breather on one of the many benches dotted along the route.

Kick back and feast your eyes on rainbows above the waterfall mist, sunlight reflecting from the glacier, snow-capped mountains and the glacial lake. You can rent a rubber raft to get really close to the glacier, or take a boat trip on Lake Leon for unrivalled serenity and isolation —it’s very likely that your boat will be the only one on the whole lake.

Briksdal glacier, Kjenndalen glacier, Kleivafossen waterfall, and cycling and kayaking on the Nordfjord will conspire to keep you in Olden for quite some time, but the spectacular Geiranger fjord is beckoning you… Hop aboard your yacht and keep moving.

Did you know you could walk behind a waterfall? Well you can — at Storseterfossen in Geiranger. And if that is not unique enough for you, taste the unusual blue-cheese chocolate in the area. This is just the beginning of Geiranger’s appeal.

A village in the western part of Norway, Geiranger is an area of steep mountains, emerald-green grass, deep fjords, pastoral sheep and unmatched vistas.

You can lounge on the deck of your yacht and, in comfort and leisure, watch this movie unfold in front of you, or take a three-hour trip up to the Dalsnibba Mountain Plateau to catch some fabulous bird’s eye views.

The waterfalls, with icy-cold water from glaciers and mountain snowcaps, add to the dramatic beauty of the panoramas. Cruising along the fjord, you can feast your eyes on the famous Seven Sisters waterfall. Or even visit the Knivsfla mountain farm, one of a handful of historic farms on the steep mountainsides along the Geirangerfjorden.

Abandoned since the 1600s, it will afford you a glimpse into a bygone age in an isolated Scandinavian setting.

When you need to warm the cockles, sample some of Geiranger’s culinary delights. For hearty meals with traditional local ingredients, visit the recommended Brasserie Posten; for unusual chocolate tastes and flavours, Geiranger Sjokolade is the ideal spot to pick up a few gifts for your friends and family, and when it comes to toasting your good fortune and your gorgeous surrounds, try the delectable local beers and ales found in most of the Geiranger’s restaurants.

Feel free to contact your Abberley charter broker here or call us with any questions you may have . We’ll help you achieve your dream — a fascinating yachting vacation in Norway or any other yachting hotspot in Europe or anywhere in the world.

Norway: The 161 metre Viking-inspired superyacht concept with a “sky elevator”

Related articles.

Kurt Strand Design has revealed a 161 metre Viking-inspired sailing superyacht concept named Norway.

Taking inspiration from the “powerful square sails” of Viking ships, Norway features 96-metre-high carbon fibre Falcon rig masts with 6000sqm of sails covered in flexible solar cell foil.

• The most extreme superyacht concepts in the world

The push button sail handling reduces crew on board and allows all sails to be deployed and furled away in just six minutes, according to the studio. The yacht is also equipped with hydrogen power cells for use in light wind conditions with no sun.

Hidden inside the middle mast is a “sky elevator” capable of whisking guests above the water for far-reaching ocean views.

• Iconic yachts: The story of the 88m sailing yacht Maltese Falcon

Elsewhere, Norway is packed with premium superyacht features, including a helipad forward with an elevator down to the hangar below and a large swimming pool on the aft deck.

The tender garage meanwhile holds an amphibious, submersible tender and an electric-powered tender, as well as Jet Skis, water toys and off-road vehicles.

The yacht also includes a spa, gym, cinema and hospital, alongside accommodation for a total of 24 guests in 12 cabins and 40 crew.

Norway’s landscapes remain consistent with dramatic beauty and pristine cruising grounds.

The best things to see and do during a luxury yacht charter in Norway

The lofoten archipelago.

One of the most popular is the Lofoten archipelago, where rugged pinnacles like Svolværgeita jut out from the sea. Geirangerfjord, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is possibly the most striking fjord on earth, with deep blue waters, towering peaks and a plethora of waterfalls. You will not want to miss this fairytale-like scenery while on your luxury yacht charter. These landscapes will be reminiscent of classic Norwegian imagery, with towering peaks and pristine, quiet waters.

Outdoor activities

Your Norway yacht charter will never be without entertainment, as this Scandinavian country offers plenty for outdoor exploring. From fishing and kayaking to wildlife tours and plenty of shopping and cultural delights, you can expect great fun while on your luxury yacht charter. Visit Stavanger Cathedral in Stavanger, a city in southwestern Norway filled with plenty of shopping, picturesque streets, exotic food traditions, and cultural magic that will tantalize your taste buds.

Not far from Stavanger is the city of Bergen, famed for its UNESCO World Heritage Site, Bryggen. This row of colorful buildings is a stunning sight you will not want to miss. The quaint tea rooms and gourmet fish restaurants are also hot areas to check out while ashore. Explore the Hardangerfjord for breathtaking views that never get old, and afterward, head back to the decks of your luxury yacht for an evening cocktail while you and the other guests reminisce about the day’s adventures. Children will fall in love with the Fløibanen funicular railway that connects the city center with the mountain. This scenic excursion is fun for all ages, and the large windows in the train car offer unbeatable views.

Jostedalsbreen National Park

For those looking for a rugged activity on land, head to Jostedalsbreen National Park for a hiking paradise. This site offers many routes for navigators, experienced and inexperienced, to cater to all levels. For an even more unique and thrill-seeking adventure, head to Kjerag mountain and teeter on Kjeragbolten, a rock wedged tightly in the mountain’s crevasse suspended above a 3,228′ (984m) gorge. The Sognefjord region is known for being the largest and deepest fjord in Norway and for its high-quality berries, lamb, and goat cheese.

Finally, after days spent exploring the awe-inspiring Norwegian terrain, head to the country’s capital, Oslo, to experience cosmopolitan city life. Visit the Oslo Opera House and Vigelandsparken Sculpture Park to admire the installations by international artists.

When is the best time to visit Norway aboard a luxury yacht?

The best time to visit Norway aboard a luxury yacht is from May until late September. Spring is a wonderful time to visit; you’ll see Norway at its finest, when everything starts to turn green, yet the mountains are still snow-capped. Summer is also an excellent time to visit, when you’ll enjoy sun-soaked, blissfully long days ideal for cruising the fjords and enjoying a myriad of outdoor pursuits. To view the Northern Lights, head to Norway in September, when the dark nights are ideal for seeing this superb natural phenomen, and the weather is not too cold.

Can I see the Northern Lights in Norway?

Yes, it’s possible to view the Northern Lights in Norway, also called the Aurora Borealis. The best time to see the Northern Lights is during Spring (March/April) and Fall (September/October), although it is possible to see aurora activity during November, December, January, and February when Mother Nature puts on a spectacular light show. The peak viewing time is between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m., when the sky is clear and dark.

Southern Norway: In the southern parts of Norway, including cities like Oslo and Bergen, average temperatures in the summer (June to August) typically range from around 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F). In winter (December to February), average temperatures usually range from around -2°C to 2°C (28°F to 36°F), but can drop lower, particularly in inland areas.

Northern Norway: In the northern regions of Norway, such as Tromsø and Kirkenes, temperatures tend to be colder. Summer temperatures may range from 10°C to 15°C (50°F to 59°F) on average, while winter temperatures can drop significantly, often reaching below freezing. In some areas, winter temperatures can drop well below -10°C (14°F) or even lower.

Coastal areas in Norway generally experience milder winters compared to inland regions, thanks to the moderating influence of the ocean. However, they can also experience more precipitation.

Can I enjoy a bareboat charter in Norway?

While it is certainly possible to enjoy a bareboat charter in Norway, Northrop & Johnson only specializes in crewed yacht charters.

What wildlife can I see on a private yacht charter in Norway?

Norway’s nutrient-rich waterways and forested mountains ensure a wonderful array of wildlife, including several species of whales, such as sperm whales, minke whales, humpbacks, and killer whales.

Other wildlife includes:

• Polar Bears
• Arctic foxes
• White-tailed eagles
• Eurasian Lynx

You will be warmly welcomed by the hosts, a friendly couple with a strong passion for organic and sustainable food. They source most of their own food by hunting, fishing and harvesting from the surrounding woods and mountains. After local tastings at the food farm, a visit to Storfjord Hotel is a must. The surrounding woodlands invite you to explore nearby trails and viewpoints overlooking beautiful landscapes. A private dinner at Storfjord Hotel rounds off the day, before returning to your superyacht.

Guide to Norway

An historic and colourful destination which calls out to all adventurers

Home to some of the best scenery to be found the world over, Norway treats her visitors to truly awe-inspiring views as they make their passage through her coastlines and fjords. Flanked by steep, dramatic mountains, the mainland also serves as a source of endless inspiration.

With an island count comfortably in the tens of thousands, and a distinctly vibrant city life, Norway presents a wealth of opportunities when it comes to compiling a uniquely memorable charter itinerary. Indeed, as a firmly established yachting hub with a centuries-old marine tradition, Norway offers visitors the chance to enjoy the most sublime sights of Scandinavia both when underway and at anchor. A favoured destination amongst expedition yachts , Norway also benefits from a number of quiet bays which offer charterers the opportunity to vacation in total peace.

Providing something of a bustling alternative to the rolling rural landscapes surrounding the fjords, the city of Bergen is defined by the cosmopolitan vibe which pervades its historic streets. Located on the west coast of Norway, the city is populated by a number of boutique stores and restaurants as well as a number of quaint buildings preserved as part of a World Heritage Site. Due to being one of the smallest cities in Europe, visitors are able to easily take in Bergen’s various charms in a relatively short period of time.

Getting out of Bergen and back into the iconic fjords is nicely straightforward, and it is here that the sheer tranquility of Norway can be felt. With over fifteen thousand miles of coastline being inhabited by less than five million, visitors are afforded a vast amount of space to enjoy their company and surroundings in a totally uninterrupted fashion. Expertly maintained, the Geiranger and Nærøy fjords are UNESCO-protected and boast an assortment of cascading waterfalls, mountain peaks, and even glaciers.

Norwegian Ships by Size [2023] with Comparison Chart

Below you'll find a complete list of Norwegian Ships by Size . From their smallest, active ship (NCL Spirit) to the largest Norwegian cruise ship (and newest), the NCL Encore. You'll find a sizable difference between NCL's largest and the smallest ships in their fleet. In fact, the difference is over 2x the gross tonnage!

We've create a new post to see how these ships rank on a global scale. Norwegian has one ship that made the list of 20 Largest Cruise Ships in the World ! Click to find out which vessel made it and where it ranks. There we also analyze Norwegian's average ship size versus all other lines!

Often we're asked if size affects price. The cost of a Norwegian cruise isn't directly correlated with size. You won't find that the bigger the ship, the more the cost. Nor will you find the opposite. You won't necessarily pay less for the largest NCL ship vs the smallest. It will all depend on the specific itinerary. To get a sense of pricing, please use our widget below.

Now on to sizing. To find your specific NCL ship, feel free to use our menu below. Clicking on any will let you quickly jump to that ship's stats.

First, a little clarification is needed before viewing our sizing chart. We're measuring Norwegian ships size using the metric, "Gross Tonnage." This always causes a bit of confusion amongst our community members. It's not simply "weight" that determines this size measurement. The definition is technical and boring, but we'll provide it anyway.

Are you still awake? Good. So why do we use this measurement to determine Norwegian Ships Size? As noted above, it's used for safety rules and whatnot. As such, it's the standard across this cruise line and all others. Every passenger cruise ship will have this measurement . That makes it easy to compare ship size across ship, class, line and more.

Additionally, you'll find a number of other stats in our ship list. These include ship length, beam, draft, passenger count, and a few others.

Ok, we're done with today's maritime measurement course. Here's the good stuff.

Norwegian Ships by Size (Largest to Smallest)

Click above to  pin this Norwegian Cruise Ships by Size Infograph to your cruise planning board , so you can refer back to it when choosing your next ship!

That's every NCL Cruise Ship currently active in their fleet. You can see the vast difference in ship size. This is particularly dramatic when looking at Norwegian's newest ship, the NCL Encore, vs the smallest Norwegian ship ever built! Here's a visual representation showing the smallest in the fleet's history vs this new behemoth. !

The experience on these two ships will be completely different! On the newest Norwegian Escape, you'll be lucky to experience half of the venues on the ship. Whereas the smaller ships offer a more quaint and personal experience. In just a day or two, you'll have your bearings and likely a fixed routine on these ships. Which is better? That's all going to depend on personal preferences!

What our clients say.

"Very enjoyable, thank you. The scenery was fantastic with the fjords, mountains, patches of snow and painted houses, and it was really relaxing, sailing from place to place - tying up in small harbours or dropping anchor in peaceful lagoons. The boat, equipment and support was excellent. Really memorable, and suited us perfectly."

"Karla and I had a wonderful trip on a great little boat, “Arctic Babe”, and your company provides a first class service to a most beautiful area of the world. Again many thanks."

"Our trip to Norway was absolutely outstanding. The landscape is stunning, the people incredibly friendly and welcoming, the sailing fantastic. The students responded with great courage and a spirit of adventure to each experience we threw at them. The boats were in good shape and met our expectations in every way. Thank you for all of your support, you were integral to a positive and smooth charter experience. All said, it was a remarkably positive experience and one we hope to replicate in a few years.”

"Our trip was beautiful. We had good weather and always excellent seafood. Norway is a fantastic country."

“All perfect. Rich boat equipment for both navigation and life. Friendly weather. Sun first week, wind the second, and some drop of rain to remember us our latitude. Thanks to all”

"Our charter experience was lovely. Rune was the best fit for our trip. What a genuine and thoughtful skipper. We were pleased with the boat and your operation overall."

“Yes, we had a great trip! We made it to the north cap and back within the week. Except one day with clouds, some fog and rain, the weather was also great. It’s such a great area for sailing that I really missed some more days to stop and look around. But this might be a good justification to come back again."

"It was great – yacht was in very good condition and we enjoyed a lot. Weather was very sunny and hot. We visited 2 key destinations which we liked: Rosendal and Lysefjord with the climb to the pulpit rock. Overall impression was very positive, special thanks to you for being helpful and responsive on all questions."

"The holiday went perfectly. Excellent navigation, boat in perfect order as well as people to check in and check out."

"We really have had a wonderful holiday in Norway. North nature is wonderful and there are so many cute places in this country. Our friends have only great emotions, so we all thank you for your kind assistance."

"We had an amazing adventure, it's such a beautiful place to sail and the people are so kind and helpful! The Arctic Sky was dry, warm and spacious above all easy to handle and very pleasant to sail. I'm planning to come again."
