Allow me to proudly introduce to the Scamp community the first sailing Scamp in Finland with sail number 596. "Ulpukka" was built for me by the skilled Estonian boatyard JR Craftyard in Tallinn.

My Ulpukka might be the most northern Scamp boat in the world at the moment. Please correct me if I am wrong. Two other Scamps are also in the works here as DIY projects.

Finland, as a country of the Baltic Sea and huge lake waters, is the most ideal country for small boat sailing. Next week, Ulpukka, my son and I will do our first expedition sailing on one of our biggest lakes, Saimaa. Exciting!

Beautiful boat! Interesting idea to keep the sail/spar bundle under the boat on the trailer. Would love to see pics of your adventures in Finland!

Hi Martti,

Absolutely intruiged to hear about Ulpukka - congratulations!

May I contact you? I'd like to ask a few more detailed questions which probably won't be of general interest here.
