SS Orion, Museum ship in Stockholm, Sweden
The SS Orion measures 32.44 meters in length and 6.04 meters in width, featuring a compound engine and Floodman valve gear system.
Built in 1929 at Helsingborgs Varfs AB shipyard, the SS Orion served the Swedish Maritime Administration for inspections until its decommission in 1979.
