Granit - clean power
With our brand new boat "Granit" we offer fast transfer to/from the mainland, customized excursions, seal safaris, deep sea fishing, water skiing or other adventures. We grew up in these waters and know all the secret places, so will navigate you securely through our stunning archipelago.
Granit is fast and powerful, and yet environmentally friendly, as we use completely fossil free fuel. All our skippers have of course obtained the double certification needed for this type of boat so you can rest assured that nothing risky will be undertaken, and we make sure that our passengers never feel uncomfortable.

Seal-safari
This is an exhilarating trip with 99% chance of seeing seals. We lay off from Lotshotellet’s jetty on Skeppersholme and follow the shoreline, passing Öviken first and then the old bath houses on the island’s south west coast.
We’ll then set course for the island of Svarten and continue on all the way to Flateskären, where we’ll turn off the motor and stay still for a while, so we can see the seals in peace and quiet. They are used to our boat and because they’re curious they often come up to it.
The trip continues past Måseskär lighthouse if the weather allows, through the sound between Vedholmen and Fågelskär and back again along Käringön’s north coast, past Lotsutkiken, Karingo, Isackes Sund, the guest marina and Petersons Krog.
The trip lasts just over 30 minutes and costs 390 kr per person. At least five paying guests are required to run the trip.

Ice-cream trip to Lysekil
The ice cream trip to Lysekil runs every day at 4pm during the summer. We depart from Lotshotellet's jetty.
We’ll drive at full speed up to Gullholmen where we have to slow down and enjoy the scenery at slow pace. Then full throttle again between Gåsö and Grundsund and away towards Mollösund where you get 20 minutes to stroll around and maybe eat an ice cream while we refuel the boat.
The trip takes about an hour and 20 minutes and costs SEK 200 per person.

We have been asking Västtrafik for several years to use the ferry capacity that is available to them so as not to risk full ferries, but they have refused. We therefore charge a higher amount for bookings due to missing the ferry, this affects Västtrafik but not visitors.
We have been arguing with Västtrafik all spring for them to use the ferry capacity that is available so as not to risk full ferries, but they refuse. Therefore, we charge the maximum amount for bookings due to missing the ferry.
100% fossil free
Via the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's initiative, Klimatklivet, we have received help with partial financing of our environmentally friendly boat engine from Oxe Marine, which we run on HVO100 fuel. The engine therefore emits 94% less greenhouse gases and 99% less hydrocarbons than a conventional petrol engine.
