A cold wind pushes across Vestvågøy as the boat slips out of Leknes harbor and the mountains lean in close. Sunlight can cut through low clouds one minute and fog the next; the sea answers with a jerky silver motion that keeps everyone alert. In a private boat for up to four, the ride becomes intimate—skippers pointing out cliff ledges where sea eagles glide and narrow straits where current seams braid the water.
