Hello. Help me please. I'm interested in three german ships. German tanker Nord Atlantik was built in 1938 at the Deutsche Werft in Hamburg. And two dry cargo ships from HAPAG. Ship Odenwald built in 1904 and ship Odenwald built in 1951. Please tell me how many propellers the Nord Atlantik tanker had? One? Or two? And what happened to him during the Second World War? Did he survive the war? Or was it sunk? And please tell me how many screws the Odenwald built in 1904 had? And please tell me how many screws the Odenwald built in 1951 had? I know everything else about these cargo ships. Help me please. Thank you in advance! I would appreciate any information!
Best regards
Thomas Cross
