The Essberger is not only a different kind of costgard-vesssel but also a great design, a great technical invention and Rescue Cordinaters from all over the world did visit her in her active duty to learn from her.
And she is not only unique but also very versatile! A lot of different jobs would be possible with her. Firefighting with three large monitors, fast emergency transports, storm rescue operations, she has a "Tochterboot" (a small but complete rescue boat on its own), some RHIBs, a helicopterplatform. She can work as tug and tow large and heavy ships around, she can medevac large crowds,.. and a lot more!
Yes,.. she would also get my vote!
Surely a great ship she is..
