For the daily positions of HMS Seraph during this patrol see the map below.

11 May 1944
At 2120 hours (zone -2), HMS Seraph (Lt. T. Russell-Walling, RN), lost depth control as 'A' tank suddenly flooded, and hit bottom at 498 feet. Damage was severe, there were several leaks, her main motors were flooded and she was unable to dive. It took almost four hours to effect repairs and several attempts were undertaken before Seraph finally surfaced. Contact with Coastal Command aircraft was established at 0500/12 and a message was passed to her to relay as Seraph's own W/T set was out of action.
At 2020/12 contact was made with a USAAF Liberator and another message was passed to this aircraft requesting assistance and an escort.
As of the early morning hours of the 13th aircraft remained with Seraph until the 3rd Escort Group arrived with the frigates HMS Domett (T/A/Lt.Cdr. S. Gordon, RNVR) and HMS Berry (T/A/Lt.Cdr. C.S. Pirie, RNVR). The 3rd Escort Group however left after about 1 hour but later returned. The trawler HMS Neave (T/Lt. T.

15 May 1944
HMS Seraph (Lt. T. Russell-Walling, RN) ended her 17th war patrol at Plymouth.
Damage to Seraph was severe and it was even thought the pressure hull was distorted but this proved not to be the case.
In early June it was decided that repairs could be undertaken at the Devonport Dockyards. It had also been decided to convert Seraph to a high speed A/S target during her repair period. The hull was streamlined, the deck gun removed and the torpedo tubes plated over and a high power battery was installed all to give her greater underwater speed. (2)
