Lauritzen _full_article_language: en indien anders: engelse articletitle: 0 96 Chapter 5 Chapter 5 J. Lauritzen In 1884, the consul Ditlev Lauritzen (1859-1935) moved from his hometown Ribe in Western Denmark to Esbjerg to start the company J. Lauritzen1. The company was named after Ditlev’s father since Ditlev was under 25 years old and not of age to start a business. He started an import business with wood, coal and fodder. He began with chartered ships for his imports but bought a few ships in late 1880s and could call himself a ship-owner. In 1895, the newly started shipowning company Vesterhavet, had a fleet of three ships. The fleet grew remarkably, and merely five years later, another seven ships had been added to the fleet. Lauritzen was both a shipowner and a shipbroker until 1918 when he closed down his shipbroking office. Apart from shipping, many of Lauritzen’s businesses were onshore. The Ditlev Lauritzen as portrayed by re- searcher Ole Lange is a truly dynamic entrepreneur, constantly on the move, catching new opportunities wherever they would arise. But it was the shipping business that was the core, and more precisely the transportation of coal, wood and cotton. By the end of 1914, the fleet comprised 26 ships. At about that time, the headquarters moved to Copenhagen. Sometimes Lauritzen’s ships carried fruit as a backhaul cargo – the first shipment of oranges was from the Spanish Mediterranean coast to England in a conventional general cargo vessel in 1905.

  • Grain Race 1939
    Länspumpen - Sjöfartshistorisk tidskrift sid 1(7) Den sista stora vetekappseglingen 1939 Bo Jershed Exporten av vete från Spencer Gulf i Sydaustralien till Europa kom igång så smått i slutet av 1870-talet och växte därefter snabbt. I tidens anda blev det naturligt att jämföra de hemvändande segelfartygens överfartstider och så småningom utvecklade sig detta till en inofficiell kappsegling. Den första större vetekappseglingen, ”Grain Race”, ägde rum säsongen 1920/1921 då ett trettiotal ”windjammers” deltog. Vetekappseglingarna blev en informell tävling där det gällde att vara snabbast från Spencer Gulf i Australien till orderhamnarna Falmouth i England eller Queenstown, numera Cobh, på Irland. Avfärden skedde från Australien normalt februari-maj och efter ca 100 dagar var man framme vid orderhamnen och fick besked vart man sedan skulle gå och lossa lasten. Dessa årliga kappseglingar fortsatte ända fram till krigsutbrottet 1939 och detta års kappsegling med elva ”windjammers” blev den sista stora kappseglingen. Efter kriget skedde även kappseglingar 1948 och 1949 men i dessa deltog endast ett fåtal fartyg. Bakgrund I takt med ångfartygens och motorfartygens frammarsch samt öppnandet av Suez- och Panamakanalen 1869 resp. 1914 trängdes de stora segelfartygen ut från sina historiska trader och efter första världskriget återstod för dessa fartyg egentligen bara salpeterlaster från Chile och vetelaster från södra Australien. Salpetertraden stagnerade under 30-talet i samband med att chilesalpeter kom mer och mer att ersättas av industriellt framställd konstgödsel. Vetetraden med segelfartyg fortsatte däremot fram till andra världskriget och även några år efter. För driftiga redare var det fortfarande möjligt att på denna trad få en lönsamhet med avskrivna eller billigt inköpta segelfartyg under förutsättning att driftskostnaderna hölls nere.

  • Alfons Håkans History 1896 -1930’S
    Alfons Håkans history 1896 -1930’s In 1896, Johannes Håkans, a farmer from Strandas, established a small steam sawmill. The sawmill’s production was modest at first and mainly consisted of sawing timber in order to build houses. However, tragedy struck in 1897 when the mill burnt down, believed to be the work of an arsonist. What was left of the burnt sawmill & property were sold and Johannes emigrated to the USA. It was during this time that the steam sawmill was put back into operation and it even expanded to incorporate a forage and planning mill. Johannes returned to Finland and in 1905 he bought back the mill. The company was registered as a limited company in 1910 and during the next 5 years the first tugs, Leo and Tor, were purchased and were used for shipping timber to the mill. In the 1920s, Johannes’s son, Alfons Håkans, joined the family business. More tugs and pontoons were purchased, among them Kraft and Hurtig (built 1920-21) to name but a few. As a tribute to the early years of the company, several old names are still in use on the modern tugs. Hard times struck again in the 1920s with two devastating fires at the sawmill in addition to the world-wide recession that lasted from 1929 until 1932. However, the company made progress as well, one example being the successful salvage of the Greek 10,000tdw steamship ‘Diamantis’ in 1929. The salvage took place off the rocks of Norrskär Island, just outside the Port of Vaasa and Alfons worked as a diver during the salvage.
