    Identifying a German ship from its shipyard board / plaque

    Hello! I am in need of assistance from those who have good access to shipyard databases.

    Attached is a shipyard board I am interested in purchasing. It is a vessel that was built at Schichau-Werke, which built warships during the WW1 and WW2 period for Germany (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schichau-Werke).

    The yard number for the vessel is 1504, so that should technically help narrow it down. The ship was also probably laid down in 1941, which should also help as well.

    However, I do have a problem: the listing on Wikipedia for Schichau-Werke is limited and I can't seem to find a good way to get access to the whole shipyard list to really identify its origins.

    The kind-of good news is that I found Yard Number 1505, which is the submarine U-445. However, U-444 is Yard Number 1499, so there is obviously a gap in between the two numbers: https://uboat.net/types/viic.htm

    If you guys have good access to Schichau-Werke's shipyard database, I would definitely appreciate it if somebody could identify the ship from this shipyard board.

    Thanks!
