Who was CG Pettersson?
C G
Pettersson was the most well-known Swedish boat designer ever. During the
early decades of the 20th century he created more than 1000
boats. Each one of them with an individual design. But he didn’t only
make an impressive number of drawings; CGP also brought the whole concept
of motorized leisure boats to Sweden, and created a type of boat still
associated with adventures on the
Baltic sea.
Each
Petterssonboat is a high quality product. Many of them are still used
today, almost 100 years later. Photos are found at the link below.
