Böhmewerft

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Böhmewerft was a cutter yard in Cuxhaven , which existed from 1938 to 1979 and initially built and repaired cutters for fishing and later also sports boats .

prehistory

When Cuxhaven was annexed by Hamburg to the Prussian province of Hanover with the Greater Hamburg Law in 1937, the new fishing port was built by 1939 . On the east side of the Schleusenpriel three shipyards settled between 1938 and 1945, which made a name for themselves as "cutter shipyards": The first in 1938 was the Böhmewerft, after the Second World War in 1945 the Mews shipyard and the Döscher shipyard .

Oskar Boehme

The Böhmewerft was a new establishment by Oskar Böhme. In addition to his biographical data, only the date of death on August 8, 1968 is available. As an indication of his biography , the Cuxhaven address book from 1915 can be used, in which only one Oskar Böhme is entered, who was a " carpenter " by profession .

history

Oskar Böhme and his new company settled in the spring of 1938 on the east side of the Neuer Fischereihafend in today's Kapitän-Alexander-Straße 19. Right from the start, his shipyard focused on building wooden ships: New buildings, conversions and repairs of cutters from the fishing industry and later also sports boats formed the main field of activity of the small company.

The equipment of the shipyard consisted of an engine locksmith and forge , lifting tools and two slip cars . The working area was supplemented by a new building built before 1963. In addition to the logs delivered by train, Oskar Böhme began processing glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) in boat building in the 1960s . The fiberglass was used in areas susceptible to corrosion such as hulls, fish rooms and ice protection.

sale

After Oskar Böhme's death in 1968, the shipyard continued to operate as an independent company until 1979. In 1979 it was sold to the Detzkeit family with their shipping company NARG , which continued the shipyard operations. Today the shipyard operates as Schiffs- und Yachtwerft Cuxhaven GmbH under the same address and continues to be active in boat building with a focus on repairs and as a maritime service provider.
