Thanks for your reply!
I've checked both here and on Wikipedia and both say U-260 was a VII C, not a /41. From what I can find online, it looks like some U Boats were converted with Schnorkels & different armament, and U-260 might have been one of them. I just haven't been able to confirm that it happened to U-260 specifically, though it definitely seemed to get a Schnorkel and the pictures show it got the bigger 'Winter Garden'...
I'll probably end up building the /41 model anyhow as it's conning tower looks so much like U-260's, but would love to find out exactly what the story is with U-260...
