Östanå I was ordered in 1905 from William Lindberg's Shipyard [sv], on Södermalm in Stockholm, but that shipyard closed before the ship was completed. The finished parts were moved to Bergsund's Mechanical Workshop [sv], also on Södermalm, where she was completed and launched. She was delivered to her owners, Ångfartygs AB Östanå, in September 1906, and was used on their route between Stockholm and Östra Lagnö [sv] via Vaxholm, Östanå and Ljusterö. In 1908, she was joined by a sister ship, the Östanå II.[2][3]
In 1913, she was sold to Waxholms Nya Ångfartygs AB, better known as Waxholmsbolaget, continuing to operate on the same route. At the end of the summer of 1957, the Östanå I was laid up, and eventually sold. Over the following years she had several owners, and was moored at various locations. In 1985, she was converted to diesel power, using a second-hand engine, and the following year she was sold to Ångfartygs AB Strömma Channel, better known as Strömma Kanalbolaget. In 1988, a new diesel engine was fitted and the vessel was renovated.[2]
The Östanå I has a length of 35.04 metres (115.0 ft), a beam of 6.86 metres (22.5 ft) and a draft of 2.7 metres (8 ft 10 in). She has a top speed of 12.5 knots (23.2 km/h; 14.4 mph) and carries 300 passengers.[2]
