Borge | This looks like an old coastal freighter or fishing boat. It might be listed in "Det Norske Veritas" shipping registry. I don't know if you have access to that anywhere in Sweden, check with your library, or a major Maritime Museum. You could also try writing or calling the Norwegian Maritime Museum in Oslo:
Norsk Sjøfartsmuseum
Bygdøynesveien 37
0286 Oslo
NORWAY
