'''Black riding''' a ferry with a truck: convince a truck driver to let you sit on his bed and not mention about a passenger when tickets are checked. This can be done in parking lot near Logi street near terminal A and bigger truck stop behind terminal D. You will risk to be [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_scanning cargo scanned], although amount of x-ray shouldn't be dangerous. However if they find you, it will be considered as a ''[http://www.finlex.fi/fi/laki/alkup/2000/20000756 mild border violation]'' and you'll thus get a fine.
While on the ferry, you should hitchhike already on the car deck of the ship. Go to the car deck about 30 minutes before arrival time to the harbour and start asking around. If you have a large backpack, keep in mind that at some point the car deck's doors will open and the cars will start flowing out into the harbour. You don't want to be between large trucks at that point! As over 50% of Finns live more than 150 km away from Helsinki, you will be able to get a rather long ride this way!
