Just a follow up on sinkings as promised.
I have listed them below in 2 groups. A. Type 1X U-boats, B. Type V11 boats
I listed the type 1X down to 39,000 tons. there were others below this in the 30,s which were greater than the type V11 totals but thought this was a good cut off point.

A. Rostin U158 13ships 65108
Merten U68 7 \" 50898
Witte U159 10 \" 50354
Staats U508 9 \" 50265

Hope this info is helpful. Please excuse any errors as some claims for sinkings are still being determined. To all U-boat Nets learned and knowledgeable forum members I apologize for any errors or omissions.
