Does anyone have more information about this? The above is all I have and anything you can add will be much appreciated. Thanks, Visje

After the war it was proved that in fact this Dutch Company was a German owned one, used for developing the German U boote design between the wars. Together with the blue prints for a torpedo submarine RECHINUL and for a minelaying one MARSUINUL came some Dutch technical assistents. There are some pictures with them in the Galatzi Yard. The best known and respected was dipl.eng Ericssen specialised in marine survey.
