This was just like that. The story of Captain Jón Magnússon, a shipowner and entrepreneur in Patreksfjörður. Recorded by Jóhann Guðni Reynisson.


This is just the biography of Jón Magnússon, a captain and entrepreneur in Patreksfjörður. This is the story of the struggle of a man who was not born with a life plan soon after birth, quit smoking at the age of 12, and has gone his own way in life, not always going with the flow.


Jón is a nationally renowned captain and fisherman, but his early years were strewn with thorns, as, for example, the mother of a boy he wanted to take to sea with him met this young captain at the door with a knife in his hand.


The couple, Jón and Lilja Jónsdóttir, have run Oddi hf. and Vestri ehf. in Patreksfjörður for years and have never sold a single extra kilogram of quota from their fishing operations. The business is primarily intended to provide a livelihood for the local community and provide the people there with as secure employment as possible.
