Look for info: Dutch Naval Shipbuilding

[GaryChildress]

Does anyone happen to know anything about the Dutch shipbuilding industry circa 1920s-1940 or know of a website that would have the relevant information? How many slipways did they have for building new naval ships, how long each slipway? I'm thinking of trying to do an optimized building plan for the Dutch similar to what I was doing with the Japanese a while back.

Thanks for any help!

Just for a start, look here?

The Netherlands were a sea power contending with Great Britain at one time and obviously the sea is in their blood.

I have visited major shipyards in Rotterdam and Amsterdam, but they had others.


All the shipyards in the world are searchable here:
