She is one of Sweden&#039;s oldest preserved steamers of the archipelagos&#039; typical passenger boats. She was built for G\u00f6teborgs Nya \u00c5ngslupsaktiebolag for the inner archipelago. The word propeller had not yet come into general use, and to distinguish it from the wheel steamers she was given the nickname &quot;screw&quot;. The type is called &quot;one and a half deck&quot; or steamship vessel and was used almost as a ferry between the islands. At first, there was a mast for support sails and several sailing ship-like deckhouses on the hull, which is of the mower type: Passengers, at most 150, could choose from the comfort in two classes. Post office no. 79 was set up in the expedition on intermediate decks, with the possibility of shredding stamps. However, the eider and her sister ship soon became too small. In 1900 and 1905 she operated the Kinda Canal, but was apparently not considered suitable in the properties for such speed.<\/p><p>S\u00f6dert\u00e4lje \u00c5ngslups AB bought her for traffic on Lake M\u00e4laren and Saltsj\u00f6n as M\u00f6rk\u00f6-Trosa or Havsbadet. When the steam locomotive company considered that the profitability was too low in the 20s, the ship&#039;s captain, engineer and helmsman bought Ejdern and continued for about thirty years. Many are the barges that she dragged across Bj\u00f6rkfj\u00e4rden to, for example, Saltsj\u00f6kvarn.<\/p><p>The city of S\u00f6dert\u00e4lje sent the children on swimming courses at Havsbadet. But in 1957 there was too little traffic and the city bought the ship from the three faithful servants and put her in the bay of Maren as a patisserie and waffle factory. It worked for a while, but Ejdern&#039;s condition and the new central bridge changed the situation. The local history museum was offered to take Ejdern to Torek\u00e4llberget or save a house. After much hesitation, however, it was the house that came up there plus parts of the Eider, such as the wheelhouse and engine. Wing-broken and severely vandalized, she was laid in the harbor with a decision to be sunk in Landsortsdjupet. On the same day in 1964 that she was to be towed there, Gert Ekstr\u00f6m called the port office unaware of the decision and after a quick consideration and a moment of persuasion, she was left as a gift by the Port Authority. The new hometown was Stockholm. The renovation began immediately. About two years of leisure work for about ten people was required on the first stage with a diesel engine. It was in 1967 that TV used her in the film &quot;Hems\u00f6borna&quot;. The second stage, to restore her with steam drive, has taken another three years. Then the ship has also been approved by the ship inspection for passenger traffic again. The costs must be kept down, as the transformation has taken place with only private capital. The wheelhouse and aft saloon have been reconstructed, the deckhouse and wheelhouse have been repaired and everything has been painted not just once just to name a few. Two yards have carried out the hull work. The eider is now restored to the condition it was around 1900 in all respects. This museum ship has been rescued on private initiative to show a vivid picture of a means of transport, which maintained the so important local maritime communications.<\/p><p>Thanks to the association&#039;s extremely committed work, Ejdern has operated S\u00f6dert\u00e4lje&#039;s waters every summer since 1976. From the 1984 season, Ejdern is again coal-fired, which makes her quiet and gives a special steamboat atmosphere. Passengers get the feeling of an old classic steamboat trip.<\/p><h5>Technical data<\/h5><ul><li>Hull: Dimensions: length 22,4 meters, width 4,2 meters, depth loaded 2,02 meters.
