Hi Jens,

Hi Michael,

thanks for your comment.

Well, I'll try my best. Unfortunately I've time to go out spotting only once a week, which means this week I can go to the harbour on Saturday. And if she's been drydocked meanwhile then I'll most probably only get stern-shots. But we will see...

Yes, impressive shots, just like those of the "Sormovskiy 45" (some also to be found on www.forum-schiff.de) which is actually being repaird in Brunsbuettel. In fact, updates on the progress of the work on the "Rika" would be appreciated.

Hello Mark!
That's true. But I'll still have to find out when repairs will be finished.
