Kick-off with Sparebanken Møre og Schjødt
Curious about what really happens behind a ship finance deal?
We are kicking off a new season with YoungShip Møre, and this time, we are taking a look behind the deals that keep the maritime industry moving.
Together with Sparebanken Møre and Schjødt, we invite you to an evening exploring ship finance from both a financial and legal perspective.
Marlen Emblem, Financial Advisor in the Maritime Department at Sparebanken Møre, will give us an insight into the bank’s role in financing vessels.
Jørn Snorre Øvstedal, Lawyer at Schjødt, will take us through the legal side, drawing on his expertise in financing vessels, shipyards and companies within the seafood and maritime industries.
Ship finance is a crucial part of the maritime industry, but one that many rarely get to see up close. Whether you work in engineering, operations, finance or law, understanding how vessels are financed provides valuable insight into the commercial decisions that shape maritime projects. Join us to discover what happens behind the deal and how the different parties work together.
As always, there will be great opportunities to meet new people, catch up with familiar faces and grow your network.
Food will be served, and drinks will be available for purchase.

Sauna, Food and Drinks - 3. July
Last Thursday, YoungShip Møre hosted a fantastic summer evening that brought together members for a perfect blend of relaxation, connection, and fun. The event kicked off at the scenic Svai Sauna at Kulturhavna in Ålesund, where attendees enjoyed the warmth of the sauna and the cool breeze off the water — though not without a few unexpected guests!
In a hilarious twist, curious tourists couldn’t resist peeking into the sauna, with some even wandering in mid-session, clearly intrigued by the sight of so many happy, steaming locals. Despite the surprise visits, the mood stayed light and the laughter flowed freely.
After the sauna, the group headed to Anno restaurant for a delicious dinner and drinks. The evening featured a lively competition that had everyone engaged — and yes, there were prizes!
And let’s not forget the endless pizza — a true highlight that kept everyone fueled and smiling well into the evening.
With great attendance, good vibes, and plenty of memorable moments, this summer gathering was a true celebration of community and sunshine. Thanks to everyone who joined — we’re already looking forward to the next one!
