coastal communications ship Explanation: Not sure what is meant by 'yhteys' here, any more context? It generally means contact or communication. Coastal communications vessel - could be a transmitter ship? Coastguard vessel? This is pure guesswork, I'm afraid. |

ferry [in the archipelago] Explanation: Most likely the vessel in question is one of coasters/ferries operated by the Finnish Maritime Administration to maintain public transport in the Finnish archipelago. For instance, the vessel "Satava". See also their web-site for further details. Reference: http://www.fma.fi Reference: http://www.fma.fi/s/ |
