Plans of Monsun type ship?
« on: February 09, 2015, 07:00:22 PM »
Hi, everyone. I'm writing you from Montenegro with hope that someone can help me in my search.

I'm searching for plans of Monsun type ships which were built in VEB Warnowwerft Warnemuende shipyard in Rostock during 1980s.

Some of those ships are Durmitor, Pacoda, Devon... They are available in Shipspotting photos.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Krsto,

On the website of Seeleute Rostock you can find a description of the Monsun-Class (in German) as well as the main particulars and a small side elevation from the general arrangement plan.

Another description along with particulars and a list of all units built of this class can be found in this article of the German Wikipedia.

Regards,
Ralph

Ah, I see. I didn't know that.
Anyway, I find the Seafarers' Rostock Website a fine address to gather information for anyone interested in the East-German Merchant Navy and its vessels.

Meanwhile I heard from our friend Arne that he already got in touch with you and supplied you with the specs sheet of the DSR Lines' Type MONSUN.
As I also had obtained this specs sheet from him a while ago and am interested in the ships of former GDR shipyards too,
I in the meantime attempted to reconstruct a lines plan from these reference sheets.
You may find a few screen shots of my DS model that I arrived at attached to this post.
If this would meet your model maker's requirements
(I immodestly would say that it should suffice to produce a decent at least semi-scale model hull construction)
I could provide you with some files.
Just drop Arne or me an email if you are interested.

Regards,
Ralph

Hi Krsto,

I think you also asked (in another thread) for plans or other reference about the Warnow Werft cargo ship of Type OZEAN.

Meanwhile I could scan an article from the former GDR shipping peridical SEEWIRTSCHAFT with a ship description of the first build of the series.
From that material I also attempted to draw a lines plan.

You may find my postings here.

Regards,
Ralph
