Hallo! It was a nice request in the form of a paper boat you put in my postbox! Here are the answers at your questions: 1. I have always had a boat and the boat you saw for about five years. 2. You know, I do not have the boat for sailing. It is a tool when I am fishing, and I go fishing about once a week in "water time", from May until November. 3. I just put it upside down at the shore or at my backyard. 4. I bought the boat from a person at Sollefteå, it is a Crescent 420. 5. I am not a member of any boat club, but I pay for a boat place in a small harbor. 6. I do not know of any abandoned boat. This was written by Arne Albrektson, Björkvägen 49, 907 38 Umeå Have a good time, wishes Arne!!!

The city got its name from the Sami word Ume, which means "the noisy river". 26
total number of mooring places in the city = 374
‘’All berths are currently leased and there is a queue for seats that become vacant. Berths are rented one-year increments, from 1 April to a year ahead. The annual rent varies between 1 500 and 2 700 SEK depending on boat size. Subletting is not allowed.’’ ‘’Umeå gästbrygga (Umeå guest dock) mooring is free for one day. Water depth at the dock is 3-5 m. There are service building with toilets, showers and baby changing rooms. However, there is a bridge in central Umeå, which is municipally funded, the is lack of water and electricity. Free sailing height under the centrally located church bridge is only 3.8 meters, making it accessible only to small boats. In 2014, limited availability in addition to the construction work going on at the dock.’’

HÖRNEFORS BOAT CLUB
It's great to have a boat, whether it is a sailboat, dinghy, powerboat or maybe a kayak! To be on the lake in different weather in different water and meet other like-minded people is fun. In our yacht club, we have fun together. It is not only club competitions organized, we usually also holiday sail and sometimes even superior form of so-called Fleet Sailing.
Hörnefors Båtklubb is a compound with about 160 members. The club's purpose is to promote boating and promoting good maritime safety, good environment and a good comrade and seamanship. For the promotion of its objectives should the club promote good port and organizing opportunities for members' boats and to promote safe båtleder in the neighborhood. Hörnefors Båtklubb connected to Vasterbotten Boating and Swedish Yachting Association. Hörnefors boat club port facility available on Rooster Holmen in Hörnefors, about 30 km south of Umeå.
PATHOLMSVIKENS BOAT CLUB address: Ljumviksvägen 1, 913 33 HOLMSUND PVBK is the abbreviation for this compound is striving to utilize the boat owners' interests right in our harbor. Dated to 40s but when the Port of Umeå ( 1974 ) built a causeway out to Finland Ferry State we had to move to the present location. The municipality utilized as a right to own the port, but the club received a maintenance grant to set up with voluntary labor in the harbor. Through their own efforts , we were then more for your money. Since 1/1, 2003, however, the port has returned completely in the club's own hands and we have a multi-year long lease . The contract you have for mooring and / or structure characterized by and paid to the club as well as the annual fee. For the annual fee you get a lot of benefits, mainly reduced prices on boat insurance , port charges and common boat handling in spring and autumn. You also get the magazine Boating, which is actually very good!
PERFORMATIVE / THINGS The map is looking at the boats in the city through their performativity. It analyses the activities they make and articulates new sites while they are operating. We cafind many of them which are having diffrent use than ‘ordinary’ boats. Some of them are just anchoring on the shore and opens up for public. How are these ´floating squares´ different from the other spaces in the city? For whom are they accessible? How the passing by vessels effects the surrounding?

Definition of a wreck:
Wreck is “a vessel that is or has become so damaged or leaking that there is none or little prospect of its salvation, as well as floating parts of a vessel or its rigging”.
100 scrapped boats
Lost property has often been governed by other rules. In the past it was open to anyone to appropriate floating, sunken and land-driven property abandoned by its owner. Today it is generally recognised that the owner of an object retains his title after losing possession.
in recycle centres / year
Swedish rules provide a right for the finder of such property to salvage it and thereby to earn a generous remuneration. If the object is a vessel in distress, it may in general be salvaged unless the master or owner forbids this with good reason. If there is no master on board the distressed vessel, it may be salvaged without question. If the vessel is not in immediate danger, it may however be otherwise.
Recycling centers has no obligation to scrap boats, because they are not counted as household waste ( Law 1998:814 ). The recoveries that have been made due to recycling the good will, sometimes for a nominal consideration.
That a floating vessel is “abandoned” in this sense suggests that it is left drifting, but not necessarily that ownership is given up. For smaller vessels –mainly pleasure craft – the police consider them not abandoned if they are tied up or anchored.

Öhmanska yard, Oscar yard and Scharinska yard were three shipyards in Teg in 19th century. Shipyards were closed after the fire of 1888. Foreign trade started in the 1830s. 2-3 ship were launched each year and 350 male workers worked in Umeå merchant fleet in 1865. When the business was at its peak, around 1875, Umeå owned 53 ships.

Unfortunately, that particular boat has been on shore (too?) long, so there have been some wide cracks in the boards that are hard to tighten. My brother have a very small wooden sailing boat on shore, for which he don’t have any plans for the future. It may be on its way to decomposition if nothing is done about it. If you are interested in that one, let me know if I should ask my brother about it.’’

FRAGILITY / AFFINITY How long do you have a boat in window and why? Have you ever had your own real boat? Did you build your model yourself? If you bought it, where did you get it? What is the room, where the boat is, used for? I am interested in recycling abandoned boats, do you know about any?

1.
I have had that boat in my window as long as I have lived here (for 13 years). Why? I got it as a present from a friend and I think it’s beautiful. Furthermore, I have a special interest in naval history. I grew up in a small coastal town by the shore and my father was a sailor in the merchant navy (as a chief).
2.
Yes, I had a Bella 530 (a daycruiser with a 115 hp outboard engine) from 2007 to 2010. Now I own a small plastic boat, just for transportation to my summer house on an island outside Umeå.
3.
No, my friend bought it in a gift shop
4.
I don’t know the name of the gift shop, but I suppose it was here in Umeå.
5.
I guess most people keep them there for similar reasons as those I have: I think boats are beautiful and associate them with traveling, adventures and hard, decent work.
6.
I’m sorry, I don’t know of any special boat that you can restore. I know though, that I have seen boats and ships In poor condition nearby an old wharf, located at Ön (see arrow in figure below) that is not in operation any more

He started sailing when he was 14, he use to work on cruise ship during the summer. One could recognize him by his look, sideburns from in style of 50’s. He knows every boat in Umeå and he was responsible for scrapping couple of them.

LiAi 8 * Aesthetics/Politics * Lost and found March 9, 2014
It was spring afternoon and the sun was still high above the horizon. I was on my way to swimming pool, but that day I chose another way, much longer, because I got a strong desire to explore those parts of the city where I have never been. Especially after long and dark winter was biking and breathing fresh spring air outside more than luxurious experience. last seen in Vänortsparken
Have you seen a boat on wheels floating in the city? Share a story and its location or give a name to it.

I was heading north, crossing the residential and industrial areas on west. I have never met so many people in the street as that day. People were enjoying the nature. I turned to an area of higher blocks of flats. The shadows were longer now and part of common space in the middle of blocks was already in pleasant shade. My gaze was climbing the building fasades and back in front controlling my ride. When I passed by the kids playground, my eyes recognized something next to it, what I have almost already forgot about. That is my boat! I screamed in my mind and threw my bike next to the road. I saw three kids standing and chatting around the object, but when they saw me in far, shocked and coming fast towards them, they run away as a flock of birds. I couldn't believe my eyes, the boat, as I remembered it from last time I saw it, looked completely different. I had found it decaying in the lake so I decided to take it with me to repair the hole in backside. After that I installed the wheels on it and added a table and benches around it. It was supposed to be a movable "warm up" place with heaters and lights easily plugged in parking lots. I have placed it in the park near the city center, but after almost 3 months it has disappeared. I was upset and I thought the Municipality has removed it and destroyed it. After one year I finally found it. It was painted light grey and it had roof looking as a greenhouse from far. As I came closer I couldn't believe my eyes. The boat was full of water. The bottom was covered by same plastic material like pools. It was filled with stones and plants and there was plenty of fish of different size swimming calmly in the water. The benches and table allowed them to hide. Amazing! As if people brought part of the lake with them to their neibourhood in the boat. This "outdoor aquarium" was heated and illuminated very carefully. What was matching with my idea was that they were taking electricity from the parking lot. Who knows if the fish were fed to be eaten or to continue their life in the lake. I decided to get know the person who understood the logic of reappropriation. He stole "the abandoned" by finding, transformed it and watching the effects. The same like me.
