Paul Denker, Maritime museum ship in Schwachhausen, Germany.
The Paul Denker rescue cruiser measures 16.8 meters in length and features an aluminum construction with specialized rescue equipment and a daughter boat.
From 1967 to 2000, this rescue vessel operated from multiple stations including Maasholm, Grömitz, and Travemünde before becoming a training ship in Neustadt.
The vessel bears the name of Paul Denker, a crew member who lost his life during a rescue mission near Helgoland in February 1967.
Visitors can examine this protected heritage monument at the Focke Museum in Bremen, which displays maritime rescue history through permanent exhibitions.
The Paul Denker holds the distinction of being Germany's first completely aluminum-built sea rescue cruiser and the smallest rescue unit with a daughter boat.
