About the Sør-Bokn hurtigbåtkai – Nesheim hurtigbåtkai crossing
Ten to five in the afternoon, four days a week. Friday, Saturday and Sunday carry nothing, which makes Thursday evening the last chance in any week.
Nineteen knots over 6.2 nautical miles
20 minutes across the Boknafjord in Rogaland. Sør-Bokn is on Bokn, the island the E39 crosses on its way north from Stavanger; Nesheim is a smaller landing on the Ryfylke side.
A four-day week
Cutting Friday as well as the weekend is unusual. It leaves a three-day gap at the end of every week and no evening option at all on the days it does run.
6 August to 30 December 2026
Four sailings a week for five months. The same quay at Sør-Bokn also appears on the Tuesday Ryfylke rotation that works its way down to the Stavanger islands and back.
