Three German navy speedboats in Øresund


Late yesterday afternoon three German navy speedboats - the S 72 Puma, the S 71 Gepard and the S 75 Zobel - passed Helsingør in hazy weather circumstances. The three 58x8m boats did not seem to be in a hurry, but the mighty roar of the engines indicated that they are capable of a speed of 80 km/hr.

The speedboats, which are based in Warnemünde, are participating in a Squadron Exercise. The first week of exercises ends with a visit to Copenhagen.

Here is a nice video of S 72 Puma accompanied by S 75 Zobel on the way back to Warnemünde from an earlier visit to Cadiz:
