Fun with the Pentax K5

Hi there Tom,

certainly not Das Boot but a submarine nonetheless.
Build in 1956 in Riga this is a Russian Zulu-class sub 90 mtr long.
Often referred to as a B-80 'Foxtrot' but that seems to be wrong, Foxtrots date from a later periode after the Zulus.
Came to Holland in 1991 and in 2002 bought by an architect who took it to Amsterdam for presentations. Apparently not to much success.
Now it's owned by a Turkish company who are desperate to sell it.

Interested ?
:D

Kind regards.
