| MS Arkona-German Cruise Ship | The MS Arkona was originally built as the MS Astor in 1981 and renamed MS Arkona in 1985.

| Thetis Class ("Klasse 420")-German submarine hunter | The five units of the Thetis class were originally designed in the early 1960ies as submarine hunters and went through different design stages; the most well-known unit is possibly the "Najade", which had a characteristic superstructure to accommodate a hospital section ahead of the main superstructure. In the German Navy, they were mostly used for anti-submarine duties, for which they were armed with two to four torpedo tubes, an anti-submarine launcher and a 40mm anti-aircraft gun. They also used various mines and depth charges. All units were transferred to the Hellenic Navy of Greece in the early 1990ies , and were kept in service until early this century as gunboats, which were equipped with a second 40mm gun instead of the anti-submarine launcher.

| Emilka-Polish Mooring Tug | The "Emilka" was the prototype of a series of small tug boats. Today, she is still in use in Gdansk Harbor, and she has several derived military sister ships that were built after this initial design, all with slight improvements (M-12, M-21, M-22 and M-35) and one civilian sister ship that is still in use ("Nogat", originally M-45, also sightly varying from the original design). One further vessel (M-36) saw its use in the Polish coast guard for a while. The model of the Navy tug M22 is available through Micro Boat Hobby, too. The vessel was set up to carry seven passengers or up to 2.5 tons of cargo. The derived versions later make no more use of the "cage" that the original boat was equipped with.

| M22-Polish Navy Tug | The "M22" is one of several small tug boats employed by the Polish Navy to support harbor and mooring activities, such as the quayside positioning of larger vessels when mooring. The M22 and its sister units M12, M21 and M35 are built based on the design of the mooring tug "Emilka", which still serves as a mooring tug in Gdynia / Gdansk and is also available as a model here. There is also one other civilian sister ship that is still in use ("Nogat", originally M-45). One further vessel (M-36) saw its use in the Polish coast guard for a while. The vessel was set up to carry seven passengers or up to 2.5 tons of cargo. The derived military versions make no more use of the "cage" that the original boat was equipped with, and their state of equipment and painting has varied over the years.
