2 个月Dear KONSBERG, Without any doubt the ships you are building are a masterpiece admired all over the whole world. However I would like to open your eyes about an important point. Humans on this planet normally refuse to learn from our Creator, despite Our Creator loves us, and had prepared for us wonderful environment based on an excessively advanced understanding. Our Creator filled the seas with all kinds of fish: big, small, beautiful, ugly, those who swim with a vertical body, others swim with a horizontal one, however all creatures of seas they have a common characteristic which is: all of them live under the seas surface. Not one fish has a normal habitat on the seas surface. The seas and oceans surface is a very dangerous place once a wind would start. We know how to build submarines, however we don't give this capacity to our ships. Our commercial ships need to have the capacity to dive as a submarine once a wind erupt, otherwise it will sink, or else every shipping company will have to pay excessive insurance rates to insurance companies.
KONGSBERG great to se the picture of North Invent monitors on your ROC station.
