Join us on a unique journey, where you get to board and travel on a fast-paced journey in the Stockholm archipelago to Gålöbanen. We will also visit 2 decommissioned top secret coastal artillery batteries in the area
The Horsfjärden area has been home to the navy since long before Sweden became a nation state and is today home to the 4th Naval Battle Flotilla, the Amphibious Regiment and not least the Veteran Flotilla. We visit the Gålöbasa base, which was established for the Motortortorpedo boat weapon during the fiery war in 1942, and which over the years has been part of both the patrol boat and robot boat era. Today, about ten of the Veteran Flotilla's ships are based at Gålöbanen.
During the day, you will have the chance to: Board and travel by combat boat 90e. Listen to knowledgeable guides who tell you about the battle boat. Join us on an exciting guided tour of Gålöbanen, visit the base's museum and the radio museum, and not least - see all the beautiful boats that have their home here. Enjoy coffee/tea with bun.

Rescuer Roslagen
The Swedish Stridsbåts Association was formed in 2012 to preserve Stridsbåt 127 in its original condition. Over the years several boats have been added but also other units and the business has therefore evolved to use the units for what they are actually intended for — transport and rescue missions to increase safety and security in the archipelago.
The association therefore has been running since a couple of years back the Rädningsvärn Roslagen where we have crews around the clock who are prepared to leave berth within 15 minutes of alarm. We cooperate with, among others, the Greater Stockholm Fire Defence, the Swedish Armed Forces, the Police, the Coast Guard, MSB, and the Swedish Maritime Administration. We carry out a variety of rescue missions every year and our motto is to create “Safety in the archipelago — in everyday life and crisis”.
.The association does not receive any government grants for its activities, but everything is funded through membership fees, missions and tours that we run mainly with Stridsboat.
