A nice day of sailing (1914)

A nice day of sailing 107 years ago. Bertil Anderson´s photo shows Carl-Georg Steinwall (right) and friend sailing in the Stockholm archipelago. The boat, Iverna (5,67 m LOA), was owned by Carl-Georg´s father Georg. Iverna was designed in the 1890s by August Plym and built at Plym´s Stockholms Båtbyggeri (later Neglingenvarvet). Stockholms Båtbyggeri batch produced a number of boats based on the same design. My restoration and colorization of the original image in the Swedish National Maritime Museum archive (Digital Museum).
