Jørn,

Propeller marking style varied by yard, so even if you don't have the boat's number, you should be able to get the yard that built the boat, which can be extremely useful in identifying wrecks.

As for the gun, I would compare it to the 8.8cm guns from U 41 and U 51 that are in museums to see how close the part numbers are.

You have mail.

Best wishes,
Michael
