Tilskudd til fartøy (statlig tilskudd)

This is a state grant program in Norway for owners and managers of protected and preserved vessels (fartøy). The grant supports securing, maintenance, restoration, and repair work on protected and preserved vessels according to antiquarian guidelines. The program aims to contribute to sustainable development by helping maintain these cultural heritage vessels, stimulating volunteer competence and local value creation, and preserving knowledge about traditional crafts and techniques related to wooden and steel vessels. The grant is administered through Riksantikvaren's post 74 budget line and requires that vessels have adequate baseline documentation including condition assessments, technical-historical documentation reports, and restoration plans approved by cultural heritage authorities. Recipients can use 10-15% of the grant for project management. The program emphasizes proper craftsmanship competence and experience in heritage vessel work.
