While in Finland last week I discovered this interesting vessel in Mariehamn, Aland. The only markings I could find was DYKUNGEN AL9. could any one tell me anything about it or point me in the right direction for a web site that may help identify it. I am assuming it is ex military, I have done searches on the web but, nothing comes up. Appreciate any help given.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my request, I now know what a CB90 class is (in both languages 🙂 ). I would have liked to find out more about the history of this particular vessel but now I have got something to go on and I have been pointed in the right direction it will keep me quiet on these long winter evenings to find out more. Thanks Again.

Not very informative for English readers. 😉
My Swedish is not very good, but the great lines are : “The diving boat of the business company : StridsbÃ¥t typ90, construction of aluminium, motorised by a double diesel SCANIA DS14, 14L of engine size, V8, 675 hp, weight 17 tonnes, length of 15,5 m, breadth of 4m, speed of 39 knots in good day. The consumption of combustible is 300L / h at full gas, a very amusing boat”. Other details are more obscures, even for me. :confused:
