Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Replicas suitable for Arkansas



Any Seehund raised from the seebottom and lifted on his own lifting eyes
will break in parts.. The wrecks raised here over the years are all
raised with a heavy oak frame below the keel. 

I think to restore a wreck which was 60 years under seawater with a
original shell tickness of just 4 mm to ready to dive condition 
is impossible. 

There must be maybe a german Delphin Midget somewere in store in the US! 
It was traveled 1946 for inspection to Fort Lauderdale - were is it gone
?

regards Carsten
