1998
The sea, outside the fjord, is waiting for us: our ships must raid through dangerous and unknown waters, through unforeseen distances, therefore we want them to be made in wood, not in plastics! In the shipyard (the SKIBSVÆRFT) the most skilled carpenters trim the best logs of our forest (but a bear seems to be disturbed by a logger, up the hill near the village!) while other workers lay the orders of planks over the hull of the ships. The right one seems to be ready, but an unforeseen problem is arising just now: the project of the boiler - a new gadget built down in Mediolanum, in the Padanian plain - is wrong. It's too high, and its weight could overturn the ship with rough sea. The owner is refusing the delivery, and the local representative is now puzzled: what else can you do with a boiler, over here?
Moored at the container pier a ship is unloading them one after the other: thank Odin that the Customs Office (the TOLDBYGNING) doesn't make things too difficult with their controls, otherwise could you imagine the queue on the pier?
