Coastal SceneryFor hundreds of years the Norwegian coastline, with its many natural shielded harbours, has been dotted with small fishing villages and lonely farms, most of them with one or more small or larger boat houses sitting right on the water's edge. Smaller boats could be stored in these houses when not in use, but primarily they were used for storing fishing equipment like nets and longlines. This was also, - and still partly is, - the workplace for maintaining and mending the fishing gear, and also baiting the hooks of the longline before going out to sea.
