- Anders Jacob Johansen (1815 – November 28, 1881, surname also Johanessen or Johannessøn), known as Ulabrand, was a renowned maritime pilot that lived in Ula in Vestfold og Telemark, Norway. He served as pilot in Ula from about 1850 until he perished in a fall storm in 1881, when his pilot boat was lost in the open sea south of Tjøme for unknown reasons. At the end of the 19th century, the pilots themselves had to hail ships needed piloting. The pilot's fee was paid to the one that arrived first and brought the ship safely into port. The pilots therefore used lookout points with a good vantage to be able to detect boats early on their way into the Oslo Fjord. There was ruthless competition between them, often at risk of life, to reach the ships. The pilots helped bring many boats into safety in port during storms in the Skagerrak. Ulabrand is seen as a symbol of good seamanship and the important service that pilots performed for safety at sea. There are many stories about Ulabrand and his bravado, most of them probably exaggerated. He is described as a sailor of the right cast, daring when necessary, brave, and resourceful, but also enjoying drinking and being exceptionally kind-hearted and good-natured. (en)
