What are you trying to find out? It seems you have already had a lookup on Emihamn and this is all that is available on that database.

First name: AXEL

Age: 18 Gender: M
Parish: STOCKHOLM STAD County: A
Port: GÖTEBORG
Date: 1902 12 12
Destination: PHILADELPHIA

Send the above information to the Landsarkiv in Göteborg and you will learn the name of the feeder ship taking the emigrants from Göteborg to Hull or Grimsby in England. Then the emigrants took a railroad to an English port such as Liverpool or Southampton and boarded a larger ship for the rest of the sailing. The archive knows the name of the feeder ship and the travel agent. The travel agents had a line they worked with and that limits the ships you need to check, but there is no information in Swedish records about the name of the final ship used.
