Information

The Electrolux Group, which manufactured Archimedes outboard motors for the Swedish Navy during the war, sought a civilian market for these outboard motors. As there were no suitable boats available, they had their own boat types developed. In 1949, Stig Tiedemann designed the P510, a 5.10 m long boat, for A/B Archimedes. The drawings for this boat can now be found online at the Sjöhistoriska museet.

In 1949, the young Örnmaskiner shipyard mainly built boats to order. In addition to the P510 mentioned here, Örnmaskiner AB built two other models of the Skärgårdsbåt: S1M (P525) (5.25 m long) and the P540 (5.4 m long).

The hulls of the boats were clinker-built from eleven mahogany planks on steamed oak frames.

With the Archimedes B-22 (10-12 hp) at the transom, the boat reached a speed of approximately 10 knots.

The picture shown is from the Storebro shipyard archive and can be found in the Bruksmuseum. An owner of such a boat was able to confirm the length of approximately 5.10 m, so I assume that this picture is correctly attributed.
