  • Letter to America to the Iversen family.
  • Speech
• Boat parade: Rescue boat, Amanda af Egersund and small boats from Egersund

Small boat owners are encouraged to join the first part of the voyage from Egersund to Stavanger – New York.

When the gifts arrive in Stavanger, Mayor Anja will receive them and present them to the captain of the Restauration (3 July), before the gifts from Egersund set sail for New York.

Restauration will arrive in New York on 9 October. There will be a grand reception, where the Crown Prince and Princess will be waiting for Restauration.
