German fresh water vessels, WW1

A cross section illustration of a river gun boat, built by the Vulcan-Werke in Germany shortly before the war, used to patrol waterways in Belgium and Northern France. Drawing bare 2 feet of water, her hull, a mere pontoon, was 150 feet long and usually built in sections suitable for transportation which could be assembled while afloat should there be a lack of docking facilities at her destination. Her crew of 32 men were accommodated in hammocks on the battery dock and protected from mosquitoes by netting draped entirely round the ship down to the water-line.
1917
