Craftsmen have completed the first expedition vessel built using the traditional "stitched" boat-building method for the Northern Maritime Museum in Arkhangelsk, according to TASS.
The vessel, known as a Solombala boat, is described as a symbol of the city of Arkhangelsk during the 20th century.
Preserving a maritime tradition
TASS's report did not specify the dimensions of the completed boat, the number of craftsmen involved, or the timeline for when it will go on display at the museum.
Stitched-boat construction, in which planks are joined without metal fasteners, represents a traditional shipbuilding technique historically associated with Russia's northern coastal communities.
