Notes
- Not built by Olsson - 29.05.2008 by Jens Busch
- SWE 4 was built in Motala, Sweden, by Lindell at the Trickson boat yard.
Arthur "Trickson" Olsson was a "big man" in Motala and he, I believe, sponsored the Lindell boat yard, hence the name Tricksons.
My mistake mixing things up!
(And then there was another boat yard, Motala Båtvarv, founded by the William family, well-known for their "William-motorboats" and for having built sail boats as well, for instance the 5.5:s SWE 13 and SWE 20) - 5.5 S4 "Lotten" - 15.02.2008 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
- This boat was the 1951 lottery boat of the GKSS in Gothenburg. Winner of the boat was company Tirfing AB, a subsidiary of the Broström group, the shipping company in Gothenburg.
