So, may be it's time for me to clear the misunderstanding...
With my post I meant that I ordered the book on the shop here in Milan where I'm used to order books and so on.
But seems that Cerberus edition has gone deaf...we still have no news from them.

Re: Longest hit
once ben hit ( Cesare by Warspite ) he overestimated the damages and disengaged. After all, of all the italian admirals which have been in duty of the Supreme Command of the Fleet, Inigo Campioni had been the only one to accept a fight against an equally strong english force. And in effect the dama...

Not only did GS have bow thrusters, they were retractable Voith-Schneider propellers. They could have used them for low speed propulsion, should there be a problem with the main propulsion. This is such a rare bow thruster to use, something that Israel's didn't even mention in his book, IIRC. These...

Re: Rudder Hit
On the rudders - The starboard rudder was not bent into the race of the center propeller by the torpedo hit. One has to carefully study the testimony of Gerhard Junack who I had some written correspondence with before his death. He claimed that he left the middle engine room with the shaft slowly t...

Oh please – let’s try and keep the big old ship within the range of it’s contemporaries. She (or if you prefer: he) was not an Überschlachtschiff. :negative: Ufo, everything you said is right and condivisible, surely Bismarck was not an Überschlachtschiff , but I'm not saying english torpedoes were...

I think it's almost certain that a lot of that damage was done to the already weakened rudders when the ship hit the bottom. For example, the stern didn't fall off while the ship was on the surface, either. Indeed.And there are witnesses, Antonio could report it, that said that while sinking Bismar...

Also if it lies on its side, standing on the keel may be enough to pop it back up; a seagull might not do it. :lol: Of course I talking about small sailboats. Well, if I'm not mistaken it's the standard tecnique to re-capsize it on her keel, isn't it? I hope I could try it this summer, I am serious...
