The SK "Berlin" is one of the most modern of the rescue ships operated by the German Association for the Rescue of the Shipwrecked (DGzRS). The boat was christened on the occasion of the Association’s 120 year anniversary in May 1985, and was commissioned at its base of Kiel/Laboe. The boat was constructed at the Luerssen shipyard in Bremen using a special interlocking bulkhead system, and is built of seawater-resistant aluminum. The Berlin’s three engines with their total power of about 3200 BHP give her an impressive top speed of 24 knots. The SK’s hull is designed to allow her to operate and maneuver accurately at very high speeds in extremely heavy seas. Powerful fire monitors with a pumping capacity of 200 m3 provide a highly effective fire fighting capability in case of emergency. The ship is equipped with a powerful bow thruster for extreme maneuverability, and it is also fitted with the very latest technical and communications equipment for use at sea.
The Berlin also carries advanced medical equipment and facilities to provide first aid to injured mariners. In shallow waters the vessel’s versatility is increased by the daughter boat Steppke, which is carried on board. This little boat is extremely adaptable, and has been specially developed and equipped for work in shallow water conditions.
