Trying to identify the similar types of boats

Dear friends! This photo was done in in Saint-Petersburg at the beginning of the 20th century. The boat is called "GATCHINKA" after the name of town near Saint-Petersbutg.  This boat is not very typical for Russia. May be someone know the similar types...

Pavel, I couldn't test the link until I published the comment. After I published the comment the link didn't work, however it is the correct link. Comment's can't be edited so I can't fix it. Sorry.

Dobre ding,

Pavel, I posted the information on the WoodenBoat Forum. I have had several responses. Finnish rowboats top the suggestions, but I'll let you see what else they thought. Here's the promised link:

Here is another photo with the Russian Tzar Nicolay II family on baydarkas and the boat (the photo after 1904).
