Schooner Ferder

Ferder is a two-masted schooner built in oak in 1944. She was built as a

fish trawler at the Bröderna Olsson shipyard in the archipelago of

Gothenburg. After several changes of owners she came to Finland, where

the Ström family bought her in 1976, to use her as a herring trawler.

In the beginning of the 90´s the renovation started and she was rigged with

a schooner rig in 1997.
