Boathouse - Kalmarnas, Jomala & Lemstrom, Jomala

The stamp is one in a 3-year series featuring boathouses on Åland. The stamp series is issued from 2024 to 2026 and consists of a total of six stamps.

Kalmarnäs, Jomala
The stamp features an original brown boathouse with a red roof and blue details in Kalmarnäs, Jomala, designed and built by the owner Göran Sundblom over six years in the early 2000s. Measuring 62 m², the boathouse accommodates two wooden boats, a sauna area with a kitchenette and a roofed terrace.

Lemström, Jomala
The stamp depicts a stately yellow boathouse near the Lemström Canal on Åland. Built in 2001, the boathouse measures approximately 100 m². A boat hangs in the boathouse year-round, always ready for fishing trips. In the summer, it is joined by an Anytec sheet metal boat. From early spring to late autumn, the boathouse is a gathering place for friends and family of the owner Magnus Lundberg. To make even better use of the space, a hoistable deck was built, which, when lowered, transforms the boathouse into a festive venue for pizza evenings and crayfish parties.
