We arrived in Helsinki at 10:00 am after a beautiful early sail in through the archipelago. We were honoured to greet both the Mayor of Helsinki, Juhana Vartiainen, and the Swedish ambassador of Sweden to Finland, Nicola Clase on board after mooring.

In the afternoon we also had a business event on board with mingling and a guided tour for all the guests.  

Götheborg of Sweden has been to Helsinki twice before, in 2008 and 2013. The interest from Finland was great when we sailed to Stockholm last year and we are really excited to be back!

We look forward to seeing you on board!

Spring is truly here, and we’ve started getting ready to rig all three topmasts. We’re now looking for help with applying tar to the standing rigging. You’re welcome to join us for anything from a full week to just half a day. Unfortunately, we can’t offer accommodation, but we do provide lunch and have work clothes available. Please bring clothes you don’t mind getting dirty to wear underneath, depending on the weather. If you’re interested, please send an email to volunteer@gotheborg.se
