There is a video on YouTube, recently restored with added color, showing Texel and the original Dokter Wagemaker. If the link below doesn’t work, the video is entitled “Texel, De Parel Der Waddenzee in 1943 in kleur…”

@Pieter Inpyn,

Thanks i will at the info .... Oudeschild it is ...

Place is for 100 % certain Oudeschild on Texel island: the quay / mole in front is still there this very day.
