Oops, hit the wrong botton. That should be 51°37’N, 8°12’W for the position in Robert Grant’s books.
The German official history and Jane's Gighting Ships for 1919 (based upon official British sources) list the loss for the southern Irish coast. So it would appear that 51°37’N, 8°12’W is correct , not 51°32’N, 5°21'W.
Will fix that on this website.
Oh, and I should also mention that I'm working with the divers on UC 42.
Best wishes,
Michael
