HISTORY AND TODAY

S/y Eugenia is owned and operated by the non-profit-based association Pro Kimitoö-skutan r.f. The vessel is a replica of the last sailing yacht in Finland, which sailed in cargo traffic without an engine until 1951. The old Eugenia was built in 1879. The new Eugenia was launched in 1999 and the 4th of June 2000 she sailed out on her maiden voyage.

  Starting her maiden voyage.

The aim of the association is to provide young people with possibilities to sail; in order to promote their interest in traditional wooden ships, but s/y Eugenia can also be chartered by companies, associations and private persons.

The yacht mainly sails in the archipelago, concentrating on sailing tradition, archipelago culture and relaxation.

The trips are planned individually, with improvisation possibilities, depending on the weather conditions and  the passengers' wishes and requirements. The passengers may, if the so wish, participate in the sailing work on board.

The home ports of the s/y Eugenia are Västanfjärd and Taalintehdas, on the Kemiö island, about one hour’s trip by car from Turku.
 

CLOSE TO NATURE

S/y Eugenia is small enough, but at the same time big enough to give you a safe feeling while being very close to both water and wind. The apparent silence when the ship moves on the water, goes deep inside you. You feel utterly near the nature.

STUNNING VIEWS

It is said, that nowhere else in the world can you find such beautiful sights as in the Turku archipelago, with its thousands of islands of different size, shape and nature. The inner islands have dense woods with green, soft vegetation, in contrast to the outer islands which are rocky and bare, but still so fascinating.
S/y Eugenia can take you there, you can see it all, and your life will be an unforgettable experience richer.

IT'S SO EASY ...

You can just phone us or send us an e-mail when you have gathered your family around the idea of doing something really special during your holidays. Just tell us your wishes as to the program, date, duration and destination, and we will do our utmost to fulfil them.
