The boat building was run by Jens Kr. Andersen, who was a bit of a thousand artist. In 1919, he developed the large type of coastal boat, which was later used by coastal fishermen on the West Coast.

The museum's exhibition also tells about Vorupør's development and about the special living conditions that the coastal population has had.
