3650 Baustunden hat es gedauert, bis Jan von der Bank seinen aus Sperrholz, Epoxidharz und Mahagonifurnier gefertigten Retro-Racer RÈMY aus der winzigen Garagenwerft neben dem Haus holen und zu Wasser lassen konnte.Dieses Buch dokumentiert sämtliche Bauschritte vom Aufstellen der ersten Spanten im Februar 2017 über Ausbau, Furnieren und Lackieren des Rumpfes, den Innenausbau der Kajüte, das Gießen und den Einbau des Kiels, Riggen des Mastes, bis hin zur Taufe bis hin zu den ersten erfolgreichen Segelschlägen vor Kiel im Juni 2022.Darüber hinaus eröffnet sich ein sehr persönlicher Blick auf eine intensive, bisweilen abenteuerliche Zeit, die dem Autor und Bootsbauer, außer der Freude am Handwerken, viele neue Freundschaften und einige überraschende Erkenntnisse über sich selbst bescherte. Und am Ende eine besondere Yacht, die es mit ihren vielen überraschenden Details so wohl kein zweites Mal gibt.Dieses Buch ist durchgängig zweisprachig in Deutsch und Englisch verfasst.

The most detailed technical history of one of the world's greatest ocean liners.

A highly illustrated history of the US Navy's nuclear submarine program, from the postwar years to the 2020 Columbia-class SSBNs.James C. Goodall covers the origins, design and development of the US Navy's fleet of nuclear-powered submarines. This program was developed under the command of Hiram G. Rickover, the "Father of the Nuclear Navy" who oversaw the commissioning of the very first nuclear-powered attack submarine, the USS Nautilus (SSN 571) in 1952. This was a truly revolutionary design. Until the advent of nuclear power, the world's submarine fleets traveled on the surface at night to charge their batteries, and only dove below the surface when enemy ships or planes were spotted. With the development of the USS Nautilus, the US Navy now had the ability to stay submerged for not just hours or days, but to hide out of harm's way for weeks or months at a timeThis highly illustrated book covers all of the 220+ submarine hulls built and delivered to the US Navy from the USS Nautilus through to the Navy's newest class of submarine, the Columbia class SSBNs. The story of the Nuclear Navy from its origins up to the present day is told through more than 1,300 images from official and archive sources, as well as the author's own personal collection, some of which have never been published before.
