FRYKEN (5346409). Sweden, 1024gt, completed Aalborg 8-1938
1938 FRYKEN - 1961 SVANO - 1971 ISVANIA - (1986 FRYKEN)
museum exhibit Gothenburg 28.9.86

Nice to see Mick's views of her.

Just to tidy up the main entry for the ASCANIUS the actual date we all somehow congregated to catch her sailing from the Tees was 5 October 1975 - a Sunday!

Very sorry to find on Facebook the following about the FRYKEN; Facebook: On Saturday evening, (20 December 2025) the classic vessel Fryken left the quay in Eriksberg on the last voyage towards scraping in Fredrikshamn.
