HELLO,

This SLB # 11 was ordered in November 1916 as OSNABRÜCK for the Kaiserliche Marine, but built as ELMSHORN (or ELSFLETH, I am not sure) in 1917, at J. Frerichs & C° AG - Einswarden. GRT 97 Verpl. 560 t - 39.61 x 7.05 x 3.33 x 4.14 m
Engine : T 3 cyl 330 x 515 x 840/580 mm 450 IHP 10 kn by Görlitzer Maschinenbau-Anstalt und Eisengiesserei AG.
On 31.7.1920 she went to the British Authority and was transferred in 1921, to Belgium.

Question : I am looking for evidence that this ship (and/or her sister-ships) was used by the Kaiserliche Marine, in Zeebrugge during WW1 ? Thks & Best regards.
