About the Sandvær hurtigbåtkai – Skogsholmen hurtigbåtkai crossing
Five day patterns for thirteen weekly sailings, and four different journey times: five, ten, fifteen or 25 minutes. Five departures cover 09:25 to 19:40.
The calendars are Monday to Thursday, Monday to Friday, Monday-and-Wednesday, Friday alone, and Sunday. Saturday has nothing.
A fivefold spread in duration on one leg means the vessel is threading a chain of landings in the Helgeland archipelago and this pair falls at different points in it depending on the day. On the Sunday sailing the boat may run direct; on a Wednesday it calls at two islands first. Skogsholmen is one of the smaller landings in that chain, out towards Vega and the open sea.
