AW: bondage instead of banding
OK, forget this photo (not good enough for the forum), but maybe the boats history is interesting enough to tell.
The boat is a typical 1920´s design (as far as i know). It has a VERY elegant shape, probably a small racing boat. At the end of WWII the owner made a "submarine" out of it, to avoid the allied forces (russians) get it as a spoils of war. It was under water for several decades somebody from the yacht-club told me. It is really interesting that it could stand the water all the time (maybe cold water and less oxygen?).
The present owner had a LOT of work to get it back swimming and in this wonderful condition but it was worth all the pain, what do you think?
