The combat boat picks you up at Solö Brygga and then carries it through the archipelago to the old fortification Siaröfortet, strategically located on the fairway towards Stockholm. The fort was begun during the First Host War and was completed in 1924 and was intended to prevent an enemy from penetrating into Stockholm. After lying derelict since the 1960s, the fort has today been restored to near original condition and is now open to visitors.
Once on the island, coffee is served and after that it is time for a guided tour of the fort, which is nestled in the rock. After about three hours the battle boat will wait down at the jetty and drive back to Solö jetty.
Directions to Solöbryggväg: Take road 278 towards Furusund, after about 5 km there is a sign Solöbrygga. Just before the descent to the jetty there is a large parking where you can stand in the guest parking, pay according to the instructions on the spot. At the bottom of Solöbryggväg is the steamboat jetty where we pick you up.

Rescuer Roslagen
The Swedish Stridsbåts Association was formed in 2012 to preserve Stridsbåt 127 in its original condition. Over the years several boats have been added but also other units and the business has therefore evolved to use the units for what they are actually intended for — transport and rescue missions to increase safety and security in the archipelago.
The association therefore has been running since a couple of years back the Rädningsvärn Roslagen where we have crews around the clock who are prepared to leave berth within 15 minutes of alarm. We cooperate with, among others, the Greater Stockholm Fire Defence, the Swedish Armed Forces, the Police, the Coast Guard, MSB, and the Swedish Maritime Administration. We carry out a variety of rescue missions every year and our motto is to create “Safety in the archipelago — in everyday life and crisis”.
.The association does not receive any government grants for its activities, but everything is funded through membership fees, missions and tours that we run mainly with Stridsboat.
