An experienced crew transferred the German Maritime Search and Rescue Service (DGzRS) rescue cruiser ALFRIED KRUPP, which was once stationed on Borkum, to South America on its own keel in autumn 2023. There it is now on search and rescue duty for the Uruguayan Navy. In this film, the sea rescuers tell us what they experienced during the Atlantic crossing - and why the journey was also a matter close to their hearts.
