The U-boat U2540 was built at the Blohm und Voss yard in Hamburg in 1944, and the vessel was commissioned in January 1945. During the crew training phase in early May 1945 the boat was attacked by a British bomber off Fehmarn, and was eventually scuttled by the crew. By this point in history this was a typical fate of the last U-boats commissioned by the German War Navy.

Many years later the infant Federal Republic of Germany had become a member of NATO, and was looking for a suitable vessel on which to base the submarines of the Federal Navy; this was when the fate of the U2540 was recalled: the boat which had lain on the bottom of the sea for 12 years. In 1957 she was raised, brought to Kiel and completely re-built. On 01.09.1960 the submarine was re-christened ´Wilhelm Bauer´, and was commissioned into the German Federal Navy..." more

"This website is dedicated to the hobby of Remote Controlled Submarines and submarine modelling. Within its pages, you will find writeups and photos of various projects that I have completed, am working on, or plan to complete in the future.

You will see that some of the projects that I have listed are now sold. I have chosen to leave information up regarding them for future reference and for everyone to continue to access in the future. I do not build RC subs or display models for personal gain, but for the sheer enjoyment of doing so and the sense of accomplishment that it gives me. I have been known to take on commissioned work, however these jobs are few and far between, as I really want to keep my hobby just that... a hobby and not a job (I do enough of that already)...."

About Gatosubs Model Pages

This page was estabilshed by model builders who like to share their experiences and material around the Gato and Balao Class submarines. One of the main responsibilities is to give a good overview about the available sources of books, plans and kits as well as to give information about them by customers. The page is also there to give helping advice about the question how others had built their subs and to show different possibilities of solving problems when works on the boat get stuck. At last, the page should be a place to find detailed photos and general information about the original boats because not everybody lives next to a museum ship.
