Fisherman Even Hauge Sees Huge Success with Loppa 100: "We've Processed 30-50 Tons Weekly – Couldn't Do It Without the Machine!"

«We’ve been running 30-50 tons through the machine each week. Extremely satisfied! Without the machine, they might as well stay on land… says Even Hauge. He also has a lot of expertise on what’s important when it comes to maintenance and operation of the machine. They welcome visits on board if anyone wants to see and hear about their experiences.»

«Hauge Junior» had its first machine, Loppa 100, installed in the fall of 2018 on the old «Hauge Junior.» The machine was used extensively on board, and the experience was so positive that he ordered a new machine for his new boat in the spring of 2020. From January to August the same year, the machine has headed and gutted over 1,200 tons!


Five Years On, Hitra Fisherman Hallgeir Breivik Praises HAVFRONT LOPPA 100: "I'm extremely satisfied"

«The machine has made the work on board much easier. We’re not getting any younger. The shoulder blades are very vulnerable, and the head cutting is the worst. Before, I was exhausted after a day out at sea, now I don’t feel anything. Before and after Loppa, it’s like night and day,» says Breivik.

After receiving good advice from one of the crew members on the «Mats-Erik,» the first boat to use Loppa, Hallgeir Brevik made the decision: Loppa was going on his 36-foot boat «Einevikbuen.» He hasn’t regretted that decision.

«You can’t get more for your money than this. I bring in more fish since it’s much faster to gut them, and at the same time, the strain is reduced,» says Breivik.

He is also impressed with the follow-up he has received after the investment, but most adjustments are easy to make, allowing fishermen to maintain Loppa themselves. «I handle a lot myself, and the machine is easy to maintain,» says Breivik.
