Travel with Bohuslän this summer!
The best and nicest way to support the preservation of the steamer Bohuslän is to take a trip with it. The fine salon interior, the large walking decks and the calm rhythm of the steam engine cannot be experienced on other passenger ships on the coast. When you travel with Bohuslän, it provides important income for the operation and maintenance of the steamer.

We are to be regarded as a restaurant, where you buy your food and drinks.

Charter form


    (*) = Mandatory information.



    The steamer Bohuslän is one of the west coast's oldest and most beautiful ships, built at Eriksberg's Mekaniska Verkstad as the flagship of Marstrands Nya Ångfartygs AB (Marstrandsbolaget), with a delivery date of May 14, 1914. For over 40 years, she went back and forth six days a week between Gothenburg and Kungshamn (then Gravarne) regardless of the weather. On the way, she called at a large number of piers, such as Smögen, Lysekil, Marstrand and many more.

    After all these years along the coast, however, Bohuslän's steam-powered machine began to become inefficient and she found it increasingly difficult to compete with the increasing number of cars, buses and bridges. Then she was deployed on "purchase traffic" in Öresund and later also between Strömstad and Norwegian ports. After a while, however, this was not profitable either, and in the fall of 1963 she was laid up to be sold for scrapping two years later. A young group of people then saw the steamer and asked the scrap dealer if it was possible to buy her. SEK 60,000 was the price that the then newly formed Sällskapet Ångbåten managed to scrape together by selling 600 shares of SEK 100 each. Since then, the ship has been operated by a non-profit working crew with both regular, open tours and charter tours every summer. The steamer is today K-marked and classified as a traditional vessel.

    Charter Färjan 4

    FÄRJAN 4 is suitable for smaller groups - it can be a staff outing, customer meeting or why not a fun group jip. The trip goes where you want (as long as we don't charge for security). A guided tour in the harbor is a suggestion, as is transport to Nya Varvet or Nya Älvsborg, or upstream on the Göta river.

    Var kan man färdas?

    FERRY 4 usually departs from the Residence Bridge, but we can pick up and drop off passengers anywhere within the harbor area - as long as there is a suitable additional place. FERRY 4 is best suited for trips in the inner harbor area, out to Nya Varvet. See the Gothenburg Opera from the lake side, as well as the new buildings on the old shipyard areas! Or make a wedding even more memorable by renting the Ferry to travel to one of the restaurants in the harbor! - We can go to Nya Älvsborg, but only if it's not too windy.

    What does it look like on board?

    FERRY 4 has a fore and aft deck, equal at both ends. You can stand outside there. In the lounge in between, there are 50 seats on long sofas and a serving table. About ten folding chairs are also available. There is no toilet (resolved by beach cutting in the appropriate place at the appropriate time!). You arrange food/catering yourself. Loudspeaker megaphone is present, but power outlet is missing.

    How many can there be?

    FERRY 4 can take 99 passengers.

    When can FERRY 4 be rented?

    FÄRJAN 4 kan hyras måndag-fredag efter klockan 17.30, lördag och söndag även dagtid. Säsongen börjar i början av maj och pågår till oktober.

    What does it cost?

    Fast avgift för två timmars förhyrning, därutöver timpris. Tiden räknas från färjans förtöjningsplats till återkomsten dit. Guidning kan ofta ordnas mot särskild avgift.

    Who do you contact?

    Claes Verner is responsible for the rental of Ferry 4. You can reach him on tel: 0730-68 47 08, or email: mailto:charter_f4@steamboat.se
