Sizeable growth until 1986
Shipowner Jan Bucha Godager built, together with partners Fearnleys (Fearnley & Egers Befraktningsforretning) in Oslo and A/S Navare in Bergen, one of the country's leading shipping companies with more than 15 dry cargo and tanker vessels, drilling rigs in the Gulf of Mexico, and wood processing industry in Østerdalen.
After several very profitable years between 1960 and 1980, the business was closed in 1986 when the I/S Norse Mountain cooperative was dissolved.
