"Helmi"

Helmi is no ordinary boat — she is a piece of Nordic craftsmanship with a soul. Built in 1971 on the island of Kröko, Finland, she was handcrafted from mahogany by local master boatbuilders whose reputation for quality still resonates today. The Kröko name is a quiet symbol of excellence in wooden boatbuilding, born on the rugged edges of the Baltic archipelago.

After decades at sea and land, Helmi is now undergoing a complete and thorough restoration by the Swiss Performance Yachts in Tallinn, carefully brought back to her full and mych better glory with both respect for her origins and an eye to modern functionality. The restoration took place 8 months. 

At the heart of Helmi lies a powerful 130 HP Volvo Penta engine, fully overhauled and optionally paired with duoprop drive for improved efficiency and control. She is being fitted with numerous upgrades — electrical, navigational, and practical — to ensure she returns not only as a classic but as a fully capable vessel ready for new adventures.

With her elegant lines, rich mahogany hull, and Baltic heritage, Helmi is a rare combination of beauty and performance. She is being prepared to return home — to glide once again across the open waters of the Gulf of Finland and the northern Baltic Sea, where she belongs.
