Götheborg of Sweden is the world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, and will create great attention wherever she goes. We are now on a great expedition to Asia! During a two year adventure, we are sailing in Europe in 2022 and will continue to Asia in 2023.
We are now on our way to Stockholm. Come and visit us in the Capital of Sweden. Due to a drydock visit that we want to do before heading on to the Mediterranean, the arrival at Skeppsbrokajen will be 11 July 2022 at the latest. We will arrive to the drydock in Stockholm 4 July 2022.
In the meantime - follow us and the ship's position!

It's been more than fifteen years since Götheborg of Sweden sailed to Asia. In June 2022, we are heading out again! In the same vein as in our history, the mission is to promote trade and create new business opportunities. Partnering with us means you will be associated with the spectacular ship, a unique platform for meetings and networking, and our mission to promote trade. Will you join us?
As we sail for Stockholm, we say a warm and heartfelt thank you to beautiful Helsinki for hosting us for a few days. We were spoiled by the beautiful weather that you laid on for us. Also, we could not have hoped for a more beautiful view, as Götheborg was moored by the south quay where crew and visitors got a view of the city Cathedral and surrounding architecture.
We are hiring Deck Officers with a passion for sailing on traditional ships, and 2nd Cooks with a passion for serving food in exceptional surroundings. Join us and be part of a unique sailing expedition on board the world's largest wooden sailing ship as she heads out on a fantastic voyage to Asia!
Some changes will be made to the sailing leg from Helsinki to Stockholm, and arrival at the stopover in Stockholm will be moved to a few days later. This is due to a visit to the drydock (in Stockholm) that we want to make with the ship, while we are still in Northern Europe.
