Sunbeams Vänner

Sunbeams Vänner is a non-profit association based in Sweden working on heritage, science & research.

Sunbeams Vänner is a Swedish non-profit association that supports the preservation of Sunbeam, a sailing trawler built in Lowestoft, England in 1905 and used in Swedish waters since the 1930s. The association works to maintain the vessel's cultural-historical value through volunteer work parties, fundraising for hull and sail restoration, and organising traditional sailing voyages for members. It also offers youth internships and open visits and tours for the public interested in sailing heritage. The vessel sails mainly in the Stockholm archipelago, Mälaren and the Roslagen archipelago, with home ports in Uppsala and Beckholmen.
