Note I do suspect it’s been rigged wrong here and must be a lugsail.
Oselvar?
It’s certainly similar to a faering. There are so many regional differences it’s hard to be sure which one. I would suggest contacting [https://fartoyvern.no/](https://fartoyvern.no/) to get their opinion.
The ad says it was made just north of Stavanger, so probably a type typical to there or the Haugesund area. I don’t have anything about that area at home, but I should have access to something relevant next week.
Looks like a Spissbåt at first glance. (Somewhat trained boatbuilder and enthusiast but I haven’t looked thoroughly into it yet)
Region fits with Oselver, but there’s something off. Could be an unusually ‘heavy’ Oselver. It’s too wide and unelegant towards the stems, like a Spissbåt. Of course those usually have more boards, but it is not written in stone. The variety within one type can be surprisingly large. Perhaps I should lock my answer to a heavy and unelegant Oselver-sibling for now.
