EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a rare and intriguing artifact from the maritime world: a submerged radar log, specifically a Chernikeeff model C662R4, with maker's plate number 27806 prominently displayed at the front. Measuring 15 inches in length, this piece of nautical technology dates back to an era when advancements in marine equipment significantly enhanced the safety and efficiency of sea travel. The Chernikeeff submerged radar log was an essential tool for ships navigating through the vast expanse of the sea. It used sonar technology to detect the water's temperature and density, which in turn helped determine the ship's speed through the water. This vital information was crucial for accurate navigation, especially in adverse weather conditions or during long voyages. The presence of the maker's plate adds to the historical significance of this piece. Chernikeeff was a leading manufacturer of marine equipment during the mid-20th century, and their submerged radar logs were renowned for their precision and reliability. The number 27806 indicates that this specific log was part of a larger production run, making it a valuable addition to any maritime collection. Brian Ticehurst's collection, from which this photograph originates, is a testament to the rich history of maritime transportation. The image of the submerged radar log, with its sleek design and intricate details, transports us back in time to an era when the sea was a vast and mysterious frontier, and the pursuit of knowledge and innovation drove the world forward.
