Turnover-test of a new German sea rescue vessel.

The rescue cruisers of all classes of the DGzRS (German Maritime Search and Rescue Service) have been built from beginning on with this capability. Different to the German Coastguard, the service is not maintained by the state , and I think it lives by donations exclusively. It has around 50 bases and a fleet of around 60 so-called Rettungskreuzer, operating in the Baltic and North Sea. Some types of these cruiser designs set new benchmarks at time of their service entry, being copied by others. I know one man having served on these. Very special people.
