Nice!

Btw. not only it's allowed to include several different works in one post - it's even preferred. (and double/multipleposting is not preferred ;) )

Very pretty little things, wonder if the extreme bow in Ejdern is shaded to show it flattens out or something like that

Hi,

some byproducts of an upcoming Schnellboot project:


USA, Yacht "Oheka II"
Image

A private motor yacht built by Lürssen for German-American investment banker Otto Hermann Kahn in 1927. "Oheka" is an acronym of Kahns name.
It was one of the -if not the- first boats to use the Lürssen effect.

The design caught the interest of the German navy and became the prototype of the new Schnellboote.



Germany, fast tug/ artillery training boat "Ludwig Preusser"
Image

The "Schnellschlepper für Schnellscheibe c/36" (lit."fast tug for fast disc c/36") Ludwig Preusser was commissioned in January 1939.
It was basically a converted Schnellboot hull used to tug target discs for Flak-crew training.


cheers!
