Cruiser propeller set<br />

● ARTR (Almost Ready To Run)<br />

● Scale model of the first sea rescue<br />

cruiser featuring the current<br />

configuration (tower superstructure<br />

and separate daughter boat for<br />

shallow water operations).<br />

All subsequent cruisers have been<br />

built to the same layout.<br />

● A total of four ships of the Theodor<br />

Heuss class have been built.<br />

● On 12.02.1957 the cruiser was<br />

christened with the name of the<br />

German Federal President of the<br />

time, Theodor Heuss.<br />

● The daughter boat was christened<br />

Tedje, which is the North German<br />

diminutive of the first name<br />

Theodor.<br />

● The Theodor Heuss remained in<br />

service from 1957 to 1963 at<br />

Borkum, and from 1963 to 1985<br />

at Laboe. The cruiser was subsequently<br />

sold, and is still sailing<br />

today as a motor yacht under the<br />

name Frido Spatz.<br />

● The daughter boat has also been in<br />

private ownership since 1996, and<br />

is due to sail again after restoration.<br />

Previously it was set up as a<br />

display exhibit in front of the<br />

Norddeich rescue hangar.<br />

● The Theodor Heuss which is on<br />

display in the German Museum in<br />

Munich is the renamed sister ship<br />

H.H. Meier.<br />

● Top-quality model with superb<br />

detailing.<br />
