The Surte is a Swedish steam tug built in 1904. Originally named the Lundby, it operated in Gothenburg. In 1928, the vessel was renamed the Surte and continued to operate in Gothenburg. In 1969, the tug was sold and converted into a pleasure boat, then into an accommodation vessel. In 1974, it was purchased by a group of enthusiasts and restored to its original steam tug condition. Since 2012, the Surte has been a floating museum and is actively used for excursions.
