Did you say it's HMS Kraken, or it's being taken by the Kraken? :blink:
The Kraken?!
It's based on an Italian ship the Anteo .
Kraken and Troll has a certain ring to it. Kraken snatching ships from the deeps
I'm resisting temptation to add an I beam to one of the lifts and turning it into some kind of experimental guided weapon launch ship.
I did think V1 launcher but that would be a,quick way to sink the ship and the V1 would need serious RATO assistance.

So how do you pronounce Kraken?

Well the Captain is from Bristol , the First Lieutenant is from Glasgow, most of the crew from Liverpool, the Lamptrimmer from Birmingham, and the Carpenter from The Shetlands , the Stewards from Hong Kong and the engineering crew are a mix of Indians , Welsh and Dutch with the Chief Engineer being a cockney and Salvage crew and divers are Free French , Dutch ,and Malaysian .
So God knows how they pronounce Kraken ..
;D ;D
Has to be the most heavily armed salvage ship ever.........
It's a valuable naval asset , can't have the pesky Luftwaffe sinking it.
