The SRB "Asmus Bremer" and the SRK "Theodor Heuss" of the DGzRS (Deutsche Gesellschaft zur Rettung Schiffbrüchiger, lit.: "German Sea Rescue Society") at the Deutsches Museum in Munich.
Some details about these SAR vessels below:
Right: The SRK "Theodor Heuss" was the lead ship of the "23,2-Meter" 4-ship-class of SRK (Seenotrettungskreuzer, lit.: "rescue cruiser") and the worldwide first ship of an advanced design for seagoing lifeboats with modern propulsion and featuring a piggybacked smaller boat (Tochterboot).
The "Theodor Heuss" was launched in 1957 and christened after the first president of the Federal Republic of Germany.
"Theodor Heuss" was in service from March 7th, 1957 until decomissioning on May 29th 1985.
Note: The ship on display is not the actual "Theodor Heuss", but her sister ship "H. H. Meier". The actual "Theodor Heuss" was sold upon decommissioning and converted to a cabin cruiser under the name of "Jan".
Left: The SRB "Asmus Bremer" is the type vessel of the 17-boat "8,5-Meter" class of SRB (Seenotrettungsboot, lifeboat). These smaller lifeboats are self-rightening and optimized for use in coastal waters, especially the wadden sea, with a very shallow draft.
A special feature is a "rescue gate" at the starboard side near the waterline, which allows to easily pull shipwrecked persons aboard.
"Asmus Bremer" was christened on December 21st 1987 after an early 18-century mayor of Kiel. She remained on duty until final decomissioning in 2012.
