OE Yacht Club of Scandinavia – "the OE club" - is a club for owners of OE boats. These are the boats of the designer Olle Enderlein which have ?OE? in the sail marking.
   There are five models of OE boats. The most common models are the OE 32 and OE 36. In addition there are a smaller number of the OE 29, OE 33 and OE 38. The total number of OE boats produced is about 400.

OEYC is a non-profit organisation with around two hundred members. Its main purpose is

  • to be a contact place for owners of OE boats
     
  • to promote family- and long distance sailing with OE boats
     
  • to preserve the OE boats’ condition
     
  • to develop the OE boats’ equipment and working order.

 

Vackra båtar
seglar väl

(Beautiful boats sail well)

That beautiful boats are also good sailers was maintained by the boat constructor Olle Enderlein, and was reflected in the many elegantly lined, fast sailing and functional leisure boats that he himself designed. Olle Enderlein’s blueprint collection was presented to the National Maritime Museum in Stockholm after his death.
   Enderlein and a large selection of his beautiful boat designs is presented in this lavish book by Ingrid Kaijser in collaboration with The National Maritime Museum.
   The book was published in 1999 and is now printed in a new edition. It is highly recommended, costs 250 Swedish crowns (~ 27 euro) and can be ordered from the National Maritime Museum in Stockholm. To order the book, please write to butiken.sm@smm.se

Note: The text of the book is in Swedish. However there is a wealth of beautiful photographs and technical drawings which give a great insight into his methods of producing boats and is a worthwhile purchase even for the non-Swedish reader.
