I blått en gull båtklammer.
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on April 4, 1986.
The arms show a boat clamp. Shipbuilding has a long-time tradition in the municipality and an element to symbolise shipbuilding was considered appropriate. The symbol chosen is a kind of clamp used to keep the wooden flanks of the ships together.
