"Hans Wilhelm" can now be lowered into the water

For a whole week and with many helping hands we have repainted the barge "Hans-Wilhelm". Now she is ready to go into the water.

Between July 11th and 15th we have externally overhauled the barge "Hans-Wilhelm". Nearly 300 liters of paint have been applied to the hull. In particular, underneath the ship it was a sweat driving and color dripping work. But it was worth it. See here the photos from the Action Week.

And if you want to know why? Read here.

The second painting in brown, so you were able to see that all areas of the hull were coated several times. Photo: cc Axel Schmidt
