Motor boats on The Skerries in the Stockholm Archipelago, Sweden.

Motor boats under way on The Skerries in the Stockholm Archipelago, Sweden. Four clinker built motor boats carrying passengers are heading towards the photographer. Two wooden buildings are on the river bank and a tall steel lattice mast supporting electrical wires is in the background. The negative is captioned "The Skerries" but the precise location has not been found. The Stockholm Archipelago of 30,000 islands, skerries and rocks fans out 80 km east into the Baltic Sea from the city. Negatives numbers P95155 to P95158 are of this location.
