Hugo’s Ship Photos –
Seafaring as a versatile hobby

In March, Finnstar hosted guests of honour on a cruise. Captain Niclas Seligson received a stunning drawing of the ship from a young enthusiast.

Hugo, 14, has always been fascinated by ships. For the last four years, he has been photographing and drawing them whenever he gets the chance. One of his favourite hobbies is updating “hugonlaivakuvat” instagram account.

Hugo’s passion for ships has grown out of his own enthusiasm. His interest has even inspired his family to get more involved in ships and travel.

“Finnlines’ ships stand out for their crew and friendliness”

Professional crew, friendly service, and modern ships are what make Finnlines especially attractive to him. Hugo says that the best things about the ships are their stylish interior and cleanliness.
He has already visited most of the passenger ships sailing in the Baltic Sea. His current favourite is Finnlines, although he has yet to explore the cargo vessels.

Dreaming of a future at sea

As a clear goal for the future, Hugo plans to graduate as a sea captain through the Åland Maritime School. He is also interested in other maritime roles or becoming a ship designer.

This spring and summer, his plans include a cruise to Germany, delivering a drawing to the ro-ro vessel Finneco I and visiting the Åland Islands.
