About the Sandnessjøen hurtigbåtkai – Rørøy hurtigbåtkai crossing
One departure at 13:05, running Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The boat covers 26.8 nautical miles in 75 minutes, heading south from Sandnessjøen along the Helgeland coast. Four days of the week there is nothing on this pairing.
Twenty-seven miles in an hour and a quarter
That works out above twenty knots, which is what an express craft is for on a coast where the road detours around every fjord. The distance here is closer to a regional journey than a crossing.
An early afternoon departure
Ten past one suits neither a morning commute nor an evening return. On a three-day timetable the hour is set by the vessel’s rotation through other calls rather than by demand at either end.
Current plan
The sailing is listed to 28 January 2027. Nordland publishes express-boat timetables in dated editions, so the Monday-Wednesday-Thursday shape holds until that revision.
