Lovundlaks has taken delivery of a LEGO replica of its workboat “Salthammer”.
Norwegian salmon farmer Lovundlaks has taken delivery of a new workboat crafted using Danish know-how.
Constructed in the less frequented boat-building locale of Sauda in Rogaland, Norway this workboat stands as a testament to the skill and creativity of its builder, Are Odland.
Merging the worlds of aquaculture, shipbuilding, and LEGO, Odland has meticulously assembled a LEGO replica of Lovundlaks workboat “Salthammer”, complete with details that would make even the most seasoned sailor do a double-take.
“We’ve heard the FDA has some pretty rad boats, but wait till they get a load of our LEGO boat!” wrote the Lovundlaks team on Facebook.
New kid on the block?
This isn’t the first time the worlds of LEGO and aquaculture have collided to stunning effect. In 2020, Danish aquaculture measuring equipment supplier OxyGuard built a model land-based salmon farming facility made entirely from LEGO bricks.
The company built the model of the facility to show how its measuring, monitoring and control system could be adapted to a land-based farming operation.
The facility included 180 light diodes to represent the water quality sensors, feeding machines, water treatment pumps, oxygen cones, UV systems, ozone generators and more.
