... Hanö boasts a small but enterprising little community of some 30 full-time residents. However, this is but a small fraction of the population of the island during the Napoleonic wars, as the British Royal Navy was based here between 1810 and 1812. Every other week, a fleet of several hundred west-bound ships would gather in the sound between the island and the mainland and in 1810, 1000 ships arrived at one time – quite a sight!!
