EXCELLENT Based on 19 reviews Posted on Flu AVerified Highly recommended - a unique way to experience Norway! Top Service included:) We had a wonderful experience with the Canal Boats Telemark! Already the care before the arrival by Jyditha was very personal, helpful and friendly. Everyone in the team feels the passion for their offer. We felt very comfortable. Our boat was in top condition, very clean and very well equipped. The private jetty with separately bookable sauna is secure and has a beautiful view of the other side of the canal (even if Porsgrunn is not a tourist place, that should be known). We strongly recommend a canal cruise through the locks with the skipper Joakim - this is a unique experience! For our car we found a very cheap and good parking space at the train station within walking distance. To unload you can park directly at the jetty (individual places for payment, 1h free). We would love to come back and recommend Canal Boats for all boat fans and those who want to become one:)Posted on ChristianVerified We spent a wonderful week on a electric houseboat (Greenline 39) from Canalboats on the Telemark Canal, and it was an unforgettable experience. The owner and his staff were incredibly helpful, easygoing , straightforward and very responsive whenever we had questions – truly outstanding service.The boat itself was perfectly equipped and everything worked flawlessly. It was spacious and ideal for four people (2 adults and 2 children), offering all the comfort we needed for a relaxing holiday.We enjoyed extremely peaceful and laid-back days surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of the region.We would absolutely do it again and can wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and relaxing getaway.Posted on Hervé MVerified A Peaceful Family Adventure Through the Telemark Canal We’re a family of three with a 9-year-old daughter, and we rented a Greenline 39 at the end of May to explore the Telemark Canal all the way to Dalen. The boat was extremely comfortable and in excellent condition.Ernst and Judyta were incredibly helpful throughout the week, always available to answer any questions we had. Since it was still before the official holiday season and the canal locks weren’t yet open to the public, they went above and beyond to organize all the lock passages for us. Everything went flawlessly—at each lock, someone was waiting for us, and the transitions were smooth and stress-free.Being alone on the lakes and in the locks made the journey even more special. It was a truly unforgettable experience!Posted on BionJVerified Just beautiful We had a delightful trip up the canal to Dalen. The electric boat was amazing -- so quiet and without nasty engine exhaust. The bow and stern thrusters made it a breeze to dock and navigate the locks with just two people.Absolutely recommend. We'll definitely be back.Posted on DominikVerified Fantastic boating holiday on the Telemark Canal The holiday can be recommended to anyone who would like to explore fascinating canals and lakes on a houseboat (boat license required). Service: the staff at Canal Boats are always available and super helpful and nice with any questions.The boat: electric, the infrastructure is excellent. At an average speed of 5-6 knots, you can drive to Dålen and back in a week.The area: Fantastic; old, hand-operated locks and canals alternate with beautiful lake sceneryPosted on Monty SVerified Safest Adventure - must do excellent boats , lovely owners , very personalised .. the canal is just beautiful and safe … best way to do a family holidayPosted on Peter ZVerified Great holiday with the electric boat on the Telemark Canal We did the Telemark Canal tour from Porsgrunn to Lunde and back from August 12th to 18th, 2023. The scenery is very beautiful, the old locks, some of which were blasted and carved into the rock, are worth seeing. The lake crossings are also worth seeing. The towns of Porsgrunn, Skien, Ulefoss and Lunde are worth seeing in different ways, e.g. with a great church with a giant organ in Skien or a very quaint local history museum in Ulefoss (Oevre verket) - just as examples. Due to the short time we didn't have, we weren't able to visit everything, but despite the somewhat bad weather we were very happy overall. The boats are still quite new, in good condition and very comfortable for 4 people (39 foot boat). A highlight is the electric drive, you glide through the landscape largely silently - really great. With bow and stern thrusters they are also extremely easy to drive. If you don't drive extreme distances, you don't even need the fast chargers available, and the 3 KW connection also recharges the battery overnight - we were never below 65% charge during 2 to 5 hour journeys. The locks from Ulefoss upwards are, however, something for advanced users. Railway tracks, concrete pillars and iron hooks protrude from the walls, sometimes more than 30 cm, so that normal fenders are not sufficient. The owners Nora and Ernst have therefore provided extra thick fenders to the canal company, which were then supposed to make them available when locking (they are too big to be stored on the boats) - but the lock keepers apparently didn't know about it (we were in the off-season with ordered locks - apparently not with the regular staff). So we had to fight quite a bit, and not every scratch could be avoided. Once the keepers turned up the speed so fast that even two people couldn't hold the boat despite a large cleat (okay, we always had to go right to the front). We are quite experienced canal drivers (Göta Canal, Upper Havel Waterway, Canal du Midi, for example), but we had never experienced anything like this before. The lock staff did apologize for it, though. The owners Nora and Ernst were very relaxed about it, which of course took a weight off our minds. In general, they were totally committed, very nice and patiently answered our questions and planned the tour with us, as we didn't know the canal before. Overall, the whole thing was a success, we would definitely do it again.Posted on Moni ZVerified By electric boat on the Telemark canal with Canal boats We have had wonderful days on the Telemark Canal, our first time on an electrically powered boat. Absolutely fantastic: quiet, odorless and absolutely no range issues. We didn't even have to use the fast charger, the "regular" socket in the ports was enough. The boat (39) is very comfortable with a nice interior. Only the wash basin was more nice than practical: when you use the faucet itself you get wet outside the wash basin itself and risk getting wet on the floor, but with a towel on the floor it was not a big problem.Nora and Ernst were very kind and helpful, both when planning the trip and during the trip, and answered all our questions with great patience.However, we unfortunately had a slightly bad experience in one of the locks. We have been twice on the Göta Kanal, once on the Canal du Midi and once on Havel in Germany and really sluiced a lot. But in one of the locks it was impossible to keep the boat under control, even though we tried to hold the line in the bow with two people, which we never had to do before. The result was that we came up against the lock wall and caused damage to the boat, which felt very sad. The lock guard later admitted that it was their fault, because they opened the hatch too quickly. Nora and Ernst have bought extra large fenders for the boats that are in the locks where it can be a bit tricky to lock. Here you should ask the lock guards about these, so that you get them. We thought the lock guards would automatically hand these to us where necessary, but we neither saw the fenders nor were they handed to us. That would certainly have helped a lot.Otherwise, we are very satisfied with our holiday, beautiful surroundings, nice nature, good food in nice restaurants (especially Strøm in Skien), nice parks and museums (Porslinsmuseet in Porsgrunb, Brekke-Parken in Skien and upper work in Ulefoss are wonderful excursion destinations) and we can really recommend Canal boats Telemark!Posted on Joakim MVerified An adventurous journey between mountains and valleys I cannot praise Canalboats enough for the excellent experience they gave me during my holiday. Sailing one of their electric yachts with two cabins, one bathroom and 4 beds, which can easily accommodate 2 extra beds, was a dream come true. Exploring Telemark's beautiful nature while speeding through locks and landscapes was a unique experience I won't soon forget.What was really a positive surprise was the fact that fuel wasn't a concern at all. Charging the boats was included in the rental price, making the whole experience worry-free and financially beneficial. Everything I needed for a comfortable journey was available on the boat - from fridge and freezer to hot and cold water, TV and coffee maker. I really felt at home, even though I was far away.Maneuvering through the locks was easier than expected, thanks to the fantastic assistance from the lock team as well as the advance briefing from Canalboat's service minded hosts. The lock team were always there to help with the ropes and provided guidance when needed, especially for those of us unfamiliar with the procedures. I would highly recommend this boat rental to anyone looking for a vacation filled with beauty, comfort and adventure. And to top it all off, the landlord also provides training, tips and tricks that make the whole trip even more memorable. Dice roll 6 from me!"Posted on MiaVerified Fantastisk! Fantastisk tur på Telemarkskanalen, og etterpå til skjærgården. Blandet vær, men mye fint, så vi badet mye. Vi var en familie på fem (barna i alderen 7-10år). Båten har veldig høy standard. Sengene var redd opp når vi overtok båten, og håndkler til alle fulgte med. Romslig både inne i båten og på dekk. Båten egner seg for både solskinn og regnværsdager. Veldig god service hos Canal Boats Telemarkskanalen, og alle henvendelser ble godt tatt imot. Vi er imponert både av turen, båten og opplegget. Anbefales på det varmeste!

Häufig gestellte Fragen
In Norwegen hängen die Führerscheinpflichten vom Geburtsjahr ab. Wenn Sie 1980 oder später geboren sind, benötigen Sie einen gültigen Bootsführerschein (gemäß norwegischem Recht).
Unsere Sicherheitsanforderung (gilt für alle): Unabhängig vom Geburtsjahr setzen wir aus Sicherheitsgründen bei allen Fahrerinnen und Fahrern mindestens zwei Saisons Erfahrung im Bootfahren voraus.
Unsere Boote sind komfortabel und leicht zu handhaben – trotzdem möchten wir, dass jede*r Gast grundlegende Erfahrung hat mit:
sicherem Manövrieren
Navigation
Wetterkunde und Törnplanung
Ausländische Führerscheine (EWR / ICC)
Wenn Ihr Bootsführerschein oder Ihre Qualifikation in einem anderen EWR-Land ausgestellt wurde, ist sie in der Regel auch in Norwegen gültig – sofern die erforderlichen Kompetenzen abgedeckt sind.
Das ICC (International Certificate of Competence) wird nur anerkannt, wenn es die Küstennavigation umfasst (Resolution 40).
Weitere ausländische Bootsführerscheine können ebenfalls anerkannt werden, wenn sie dem norwegischen Bootsführerschein gleichwertig sind und in Englisch oder einer skandinavischen Sprache ausgestellt wurden.
Wenn Sie unsicher sind, schicken Sie uns gern einen Scan/ein Foto Ihres Führerscheins – wir prüfen das für Sie.
Wir bitten Sie, uns vorab eine Kopie Ihres Bootsführerscheins zu senden oder ihn bei der Anreise vorzuzeigen.
Wenn die Führerscheinregelung auf Sie nicht zutrifft, senden Sie uns bitte vorab einen kurzen Erfahrungsnachweis (Boots-/Seefahrts-Lebenslauf) oder bringen Sie ihn zum Check-in mit.
Damit Sie sich an Bord sicher und wohl fühlen, erhalten Sie bei der Ankunft eine ausführliche Einweisung. Wir gehen gemeinsam durch:
– Sicherheitsabläufe
– die Ausstattung des Bootes
– die Geräte am Steuerstand
– praktische Tipps, die vor Beginn Ihres Urlaubs hilfreich sind
Die Einweisung dauert etwa 1 Stunde, bevor Sie den Hafen verlassen.
Wenn Sie sich auf dem Wasser noch sicherer fühlen möchten, bieten wir außerdem eine optionale 2-stündige Trainingseinheit mit unserem Skipper an. Sie können diese während des Buchungsvorgangs unter „Zusatzausstattung“ hinzufügen.
Allgemeine Regeln
(gilt sowohl für Küstengewässer als auch für den Telemarkkanal)
Die Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung beträgt 5 Knoten, wenn Sie sich in Ufernähe befinden (innerhalb von 50 Metern). Das ist die häufigste Einschränkung, der Sie auf Ihrer Reise begegnen.
Bitte folgen Sie stets den Fahrwasserzeichen und lokalen Hinweisen.
Navigationsmarkierungen können sich von Jahr zu Jahr verändern – die tatsächlichen Tonnen/Staken vor Ort haben immer Vorrang vor der Anzeige auf dem Kartenplotter.
Weitere Einschränkungen sind in der Regel klar ausgeschildert.
Ihre Geschwindigkeit und den Batterieverbrauch können Sie jederzeit über die Bordinstrumente im Blick behalten.
Telemarkkanal
Auf dem Telemarkkanal gilt eine Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 5 Knoten.
Wenn Sie flussaufwärts fahren, sehen Sie:
– grün/weiße Markierungen (Staken) an Steuerbord und
– rote Markierungen an Backbord.
Halten Sie einen Abstand von etwa 3–5 Metern zu den Markierungen.
Küstengewässer
In den meisten Küstenbereichen gilt dieselbe Begrenzung wie auf dem Kanal: 5 Knoten.
Weiter entfernt vom Ufer können Geschwindigkeitsbeschränkungen ggf. entfallen – dennoch sollten Sie immer die Reichweite des Bootes berücksichtigen:
– bei konstant 5 Knoten ermöglicht die Batterie typischerweise etwa 10 Stunden Fahrt
– die maximale Geschwindigkeit des Bootes beträgt 10 Knoten
Sie können das Boot in jedem Hafen mit einem Standard-16A-Ladeanschluss laden – diese sind an den meisten Stegen in der Telemark-Region verfügbar, sowohl entlang des Kanals als auch an der Küste.
Zusätzlich gibt es ein Netzwerk an Schnellladern (21 kW) entlang des Telemarkkanals sowie in Kragerø Rørvik. So können Sie zwischen wichtigen Häfen fahren, ohne sich um den Batteriestand sorgen zu müssen.
Beim Check-in zeigen wir Ihnen, wie das Laden funktioniert, und geben Ihnen Hinweise zu lokalen Ladepunkten – damit Sie entspannt reisen können.
Bei der optimalen Reisegeschwindigkeit von 5 Knoten (das ist auch die maximale Geschwindigkeit auf dem Telemarkkanal) können Sie etwa 100 km (57,6 Seemeilen) zurücklegen – das entspricht rund 10 Stunden Fahrt.
An Bord haben Sie jederzeit einen klaren Überblick über den aktuellen Batteriestand und die geschätzte Restreichweite – die Planung ist damit einfach und stressfrei.
Bitte beachten Sie: Die Solarpaneele versorgen nur die Bordverbraucher („House“-Systeme, 12V), nicht die Antriebsbatterien (400V).
Ungefähre Reichweite bei Gegenwind:
– 4,9 Knoten – 57,6 sm
– 5,6 Knoten – 43,9 sm
– 6,2 Knoten – 33,5 sm
– 7,5 Knoten – 20,9 sm
Nein – solange Sie das Boot zur vereinbarten Zeit nach Porsgrunn zurückbringen, können Sie sich innerhalb des Fahrgebiets frei bewegen und die Route nach Wunsch gestalten.

EXCELLENT Based on 13 reviews Posted on Flu ATrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wir hatten eine wunderbare Erfahrung mit den Canal Boats Telemark! Bereits die Betreuung vor der Anreise durch Jyditha war sehr persönlich, hilfreich und freundlich. Bei allen im Team spürt man die Passion für ihr Angebot. Wir uns haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Unser Boot war in einem top Zustand, sehr sauber und sehr gut ausgestattet. Der eigene Steg mit separat buchbarer Sauna ist sicher und hat einen schönen Blick auf die andere Kanalseite (auch wenn Porsgrunn kein touristischer Ort ist, dass sollte man wissen). Wir empfehlen unbedingt eine Kanalfahrt durch die Schleusen mit dem Skipper Joakim - das ist ein einmaliges Erlebnis! Für unser Auto haben wir in fußnähe einen sehr günstigen und guten Parkplatz am Bahnhof gefunden. Zum Ausladen kann man direkt am Steg parken (einzelne Plätze gegen Bezahlung). Wir würden sehr gerne wieder kommen und empfehlen Canal Boats für alle Bootsfans und solche, die es werden wollen :)Posted on Katie sTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. So helpful and kind. Had the the locks look out for us, were quick to help when a repair was needed, and had toys ready for the kids on the trip.

Great experience, strongly recommended! Special thanks to Judyta who was great in helping us to prepare our trip. The boat is super nice, confortable and super easy to steer once you get a hold on the thrusters. We went up the canal to Ulefoss and First Camp Nordsjø. Lot of nice experiences and activities for both kids and adults. We will definitely try to come back next year and explore more places!! Thanks to Judyta and Ernst for creating amazing holidays for us!

Ström och vatten på bryggan är väldigt bra. Varken dusch, toalett, eller sophantering i en gästhamn är uselt. Trevlig man som har hand om bryggan dock.Posted on wolfgang wTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. i rented a greenline 33 from canalboats for 10 days in late november/early december. simply amazing! the host: both, during email contact and later during the boat handover, Nora was super friendly, answered all questions in detail, was flexible, correct, and helpful - beyond expectations. THANK YOU! the boat: mint condition both inside and outside, looked so new I was afraid to use it and covered the seating area with spare towels :) the main cabin has 2 beds that can be joined to a double bed and there are 2 bunk beds; plenty of outlets for 220V and USB-A (and C), coffee machine, all cutlery, plates, pans, glasses, TV for streaming Netflix, youtube, amazon, etc. (no regular TV reception), spacious fridge+small freezer, induction+microwave. boat has airco and heating. with outside temperatures around freezing levels, you get the inside to around 15 degrees, which was perfect for winter. i switched off the heating over night, the cabin cools down to around 5 degrees, the supplied bed linens keep you really warm. for winter travel i recommend a small portable fan heater, too. the helm and the side deck are rather narrow, the greenline 39 seems to be a better fit for a big person. electric boating is an experience in itself. smooth, precise throttle control when maneuvering, no noise, no vibration, no fumes, phantastic! the electronic navigation (with autopilot) was a great help in the fjords range is no issue. cruising at 4-5kts should give you 12-15 hours, 6kts should give you just about 10 hours. i sailed 5-7 hours per day and usually arrived with the battery around 50%. charging is no problem, all marinas had 16A (around 3 - 3.5kw charge current) and the next morning the battery was full. handling is easy, boat is equipped with both bow and stern thrusters. running hot water in the shower was good for max.10 minutes, but that could be because of the cold outside temperatures. open sea is ok for waves up to 1 meter or so, any more is definitely stretching comfort, but it's much nicer staying inside the fjords anyway. the trip: telemark canal is closed in winter, so i travelled along the coast, through the fjords, via brevik, langesund, trosbyfjorden, kragero, risor, tvedestrand and returning via valle, nevlunghavn, helgeroa. The scenery is very beautiful, with all its little (and big) rock formations along the route, the beautiful summer houses - sometimes built on tiny islands, forests and wildlife, and all those picturesque towns. In some areas i'd slow down to walking speed or less, to silently drift through the fjords to enjoy this amazing scenery on calm waters
