FINLAND POSTCARDS COLLECTION

CHURCH BOAT

Traditional Finnish rowing boat

FINLAND

 - Church boat, “kirkkovene”, is a traditional Finnish rowing boat, which carried our ancestors almost every Sunday sometimes tremendously long distances to the holy mass. After the holy mass they almost immediately set themselves up for the trip homewards. If there was time waiting for the others they gathered strength by eating and resting for the race with the other boats sharing the same trip or part of it back home.  The boats now use for fun ecological exercise, sightseeing and races.

The wooden rowing boats, a 12 meters long carry 14 oarsmen (one oar each) and a cox steering the boat.
