The Swedish publisher and yachtsman Erik Åkerlund´s Swedish Square Metre Yacht (skerry cruiser) Bitt-Marie, photographed in the Stockholm archipelago in 1920. The boat, which was designed by Erik Salander, was built at the Hästholmsvarvet in 1917. My colorization of Oscar Norberg´s photo in the Maritime musem of Sweden archive.
Åkerlund owned the boat in 1919 - 1922, after which it has had several owners and names. Since the mid 80s it is sailing in Finland as ILA.
