On 10.04.2017 the last four
boats decommissioned on 16.11.2016 a.D. ("S73
Hermelin", "S75 Zobel", "S76 Frettchen", and
"S80 Hyäne") of the ex-7. S-Squadron at MArs Kiel, as our
fellow
Kamerad Tino Kunzmann observed. When, how and with which objective they
were brought there we do not know. Litle later boats "S72 Puma",
"S78 Ozelot" and "S79 Wiesel" joined.

The Boats laid up at
Warnemünde have joined - Picture: Andreas Engel
Since months six of the
seven boats are laying together at a berthing of MArs Kiel. They are boats
"S73
Hermelin", "S75 Zobel" , "S76 Frettchen" and
S"80 Hyäne" as well as "S72 Puma" and "S79 Wiesel".
After a flooding "S78 Ozelot" is berthed at a separate pier.
