Miscellaneous
Everything was loaded and unloaded by hand, and for every 50 kg sack of fertilizer thrown out of the room, Edgar would say "Åhej då Erik".
His brother Erik was almost always on board.
Regina loaded about 30 tons. The boat was a so-called Kontio boat, which Edgar drove in the 1950s and 1960s.
One of the large fish holding boats that existed can be seen in the front of the picture.
Regina was bought by Lennart Björklund, Norrby Iniö.
The boat was later sold to Sweden.
