Good evening all
Some details of the tests carried out on submarine hulls is mentioned in â€The Sea Surrenders†by Capt. W R Fell RN (Ret,d), who took part in the trials off the West of Scotland and Gibraltar in 1949 and 1950.
In Scotland the boats were used in the following order:
Stoic, Supreme, Sceptre, Stygian and Upshot.
Off Gibraltar a brand new hull Achates was tested to destruction.
