Isfjord Radio station was built and put into action in 1933. This book is an attempt

to summarize the available data and pictures regarding boats and ships that had

significance for the Isfjord Radio station, either directly or indirectly. As a coastal

radio station, Isfjord Radio maintained contact with both mainland Norway and all

ship traffic in the North Atlantic, as well as locally around Svalbard. Boats became

central to the station in many aspects of its life and duty.

This book aims to gather information about the ships and boats that have been

significant to the staff and visitors of Isfjord Radio. In the numerous boats and ships

associated with various activities around the station, Longyearbyen, the Russian

settlements, and the region, Isfjord Radio is to some extent part of the history of

These Areas. This book, of course, is not comprehensive in all aspects, but it

attempts to cover as much as possible based on literature, official, and private photo

collections.
