Paddan 4, passing Lilla BommenOne of several sightseeing boats operated by Strömma, providing tours of the Gothenburg waterways. The tour guide is just raising the windscreens as the boat heads out into the choppy waters of the Göta Älv in the centre of Gothenburg. On rainy days the passengers get plastic hooded raincoats.
In the background is another Strömma boat, St Erik, of which photographs and details can be seen on the Ships&Harbours web site.
The picture was taken from yet another Strömma boat, the Carl Michael Bellman, on one of my regular trips out to the island of Älvsborg Fortress.
