Marseilles, August 5th 1995.

Former French navy tanker SAHEL, ordered in 1941 (shipyard of Blainville-Caen) by IIIe Reich, but not achieved at the end of WWII.
Completed 1950 for the French Navy. Named SAHEL.
Converted in water-tanker in 1965. Decommissioned in 1982 and then given to Marseilles' fire brigade as a hull for real fire drills.

Fate unknown (I wonder she sank along the quay some years ago ?)

Regards,
Yvon
