Interview about building our ship boats

Interview with Martin and Mathias Ravanis

During Gothenbug Boat Show in February, me managed to meet up with the Ravanis brothers and ask them a couple of questions about the building of our two ship boats.

Interview with Martin and Mathias Ravanis

We were invited to the Gothenburg Boat Show in February.  The invitation came from Västkustens träbåtsförening in the hope to promote the Gothneburg row in August. We are currently planning on participating in the row witt both our ship boats Mattias and Martin, but we only brought Mattias to the boat show.

On the boat show, we got the opportunity to speak with Martin and Mathias Ravanis from Nyhamns såg & Båtbyggeri. They are the twoship builders who built our ship boats.

Have a look at the youtube film below.

Zumba Onboard the Ship!

30 July 2026

Zumba® Fitness is a workout that combines dance and fitness to energetic rhythms, mainly inspired by Latin American music such as salsa, merengue, reggaeton, and cumbia. It's a fun, high-energy workout that feels more like a dance party than exercise. Zumba® Fitness is designed to improve cardiovascular fitness, strength, and coordination—all while bringing joy and positive energy.

We present a new guided tour!

08 July 2026

Join us on a guided tour from the city centre to the ship! We begin at Gustav Adolfs Square, where you will hear the story of Gothenburg’s founding. From there, we take a short walk, following the traces of the Swedish East India Company. Why did they travel to China? Who sailed on board, and what happened when the ships returned with their valuable cargoes?
