History

​

Boghammar Marin was founded as a subsidiary of "Gustafsson & Andersson Varvs AB" founded in 1905.

The company is with its 100 years of history one of the oldest still operating shipyards in Sweden. We are a family business now run by the third and fourth generation Boghammar. Since its creation, the shipyard has been involved in the production of ships/boats of its own design, where we also have designed and constructed our own marine engines “Bog-Marin”.

Between 1920 and 1930 we made a series of aircraft for the Swedish Air Force. The aircraft manufacturing was sold and then became a part of creating the world-famous Saab Company.

With the experience of aircraft production the yard in 1928 produced one of Europe’s first lightweight metal boats. Lightweight metal vast potential was obvious, but because of a shortage of aluminum during the Second World War the production of light metal boats did not start properly until 1950.
