Deck Plank from Restauration

Deck Plank from the Vessel Restauration

‍
A unique deck plank from the iconic emigrant ship Restauration, numbered 1–75 (limited edition) and accompanied by an authenticity certificate signed by the boat builder.

This is an extraordinary keepsake from a remarkable chapter of Norwegian-American history — perfect for anyone who wishes to own a physical piece of the past — and today.
Each plank comes from the original deck of Restauration, which sailed from Norway to North America in 2025.

Every deck plank is one of a kind, both front and back. Numbered from 1 to 75 — and only these 75 were ever made.

The planks were removed by hand from Restauration’s deck, hand-cut, branded with a hot iron just as it was done in 1825, and individually numbered.
‍
It's beveled at the bottom and can be beautifully displayed at home as a meaningful reminder of the Norwegian migration, the historic journey, and your own connection to Restauration.

The size is perfect for easy transport — especially for Norwegian-Americans visiting Norway and bringing a piece of the ship and its history back to North America.
