Olivia is a Saloon (cabin) sloop, also known as a Colibri (hummingbird)
boat, meaning that she is a downscaled model of a larger type of boat.
This type of boat was at its most common during the turn of the last
century.
She was built at Åbo Båtvarv, Finland in 1904 and purchased
by Generalkonsul Fredrik Holm from Marstrand.
Olivia changed owners many times, until she in 1982 ended up in the
possession of CAPTAIN STOCKLASSA in terrible condition. Renovation
commenced and by 1993 she had been completely restored.
The same year she was exhibited at the boat fair at Älvsjö and
was awarded the prestigious Skagerrak Stipend.
In the summer of 1993 she attended the Wax Holm festival for veteran
boats and was awarded the prize for Best Boat in Show.
Since her renovation she has been employed in charter service with
guests from all walks of life and corners of the world, for example,
Their Royal Majesties the King and Queen of Sweden, Her Royal Highness
the Crown Princess Viktoria, the actor Roger Moore, the artists Roxette,
E-type as well as a number of satisfied corporate guests.
