The grandchildren gave names to the coastal passengers ships

When Havila Voyages’ new ships were to be named, the owner and founder, Per Sævik, announced a naming competition between his grandchildren.

Havila Voyages is a family-owned shipping company, and head of the board, owner and grandfather Per Sævik gave his eight grandchildren the challenge of finding suitable names for the new vessels.

The grandchildren were to come up with suggestions for names that included both the Havila name and the name of a star.

The reason of choosing a name related to the starry sky is connected with the fact that seafarers always have navigated by the stars, and that having a star to steer by is important whether one is on land or sea.
