The river seagoing vessels of the Ladoga series are river and canal coasters.

history

The ships were manufactured in three series from 1972 to 1989 at Finnish shipyards . The first series (Project 285) was created between 1972 and 1974 by the Laivateollisuus AB shipyards in Turku and Reposaaren Konepaja in Reposaari , the second series (Project 289) was created from 1978 to 1980 at Rauma Repola in Savonlinna . The third series (Project 787) of the further developed type, comprising ten units, was delivered by the Rauma Repola shipyard in Uusikaupunki . With a total of 27 units built, the Ladoga ship group is one of the more successful designs of this type.

The first two series have fixed superstructures arranged far aft without a lift bridge. The superstructures of the Project 289 units, however, are one deck higher than in the first series. Both series have two holds . Otherwise, the only difference between the first two series is minor differences in the size of the ship and other special features. The third series has a completely different arrangement with a lift bridge at the front. The ships in this series only have one hold, which is correspondingly longer.

The ships of the Ladoga series were equipped with two main engines that act on two fixed propellers. Most of the machines come from GDR production. In the first two ship series, machines from VEB Schwermaschinenbau Karl Liebknecht (type: 6NVD 48A-2U) with an output of 640 HP each were installed, so that a total output of 1280 HP results. In the third series, some machines from GDR production (type: 6VDS 26), but also some from Volvo Penta (type: D30A-MT) from Japanese production were installed. With 440 to 480 hp each, the engines have a slightly lower performance than those of the ships in the first two series.

The naming was simple; all ships were given the name Ladoga followed by a number. The first series included ships Ladoga-1 to Ladoga-9 , the second series (Project 289) counted from Ladoga-10 to Ladoga-19, and the third series included ships Ladoga-101 to Ladoga-108

The ships are mainly used on combined inland and coastal services on short trips. In Northern Europe, the Ladogas were mostly used in the Baltic Sea area, but sometimes also as far as the North Sea ports . The use was restricted by the limitation to trips with lower wind strengths and certain maximum distances to the coast. In the 1970s to 1990s in particular, in some North Sea estuaries, when the weather was bad, this often led to larger fleets of wind boats of this type.
