Miscellaneous
The S/S Norrkulla is a Finnish steam-powered passenger ship that was built in 1911 by Tehtaat Lehtoniemi & Taipale Fabriker in Jorois for Ångbåts Ab Nagu in Turku.
The S/S Norrkulla initially operated in the Turku archipelago on the route Turku – Harlax – Mustfinnö – Prostvik – Pensar – Kirjais – Berghamn – Nötö – Nagu. After the company went bankrupt, she was sold at a foreclosure auction in May 1915. She was subsequently requisitioned by the Russian government and then purchased in 1918 by Norrkulla Ab in Helsinki. She was lengthened in 1919 and subsequently operated in the Helsinki archipelago, before serving as a cargo and passenger ship in the Säminge archipelago on Lake Saimaa from 1938 to 1975.
