THE SHIPWRIGHT
In the small port of Gotland, Sweden, Rolf Erixson looks proudly at one of the boats he manufactured with his own hands and great passion.
He is a man in love with the sea who has chosen to live in the wilderness of a far away island, forging with thorough commitment boats that will one day sail the cold waters of the Baltic.
Master carpenter: in this definition the scent of the sea and that of the forest intertwine, combined in a vocation with an ancient tradition.
