<HTML>From my register I find this:

18/3 1916: French destroyer RENAUDIN torpedoed by Austrian "U-6" at southern Adriatic Sea, off Durazzo (Durres), Albania. On a sweep from Brindisi across the Adriatic with other Allied ships, "Renaudin" was hit by one of the few Austrian submarines available for operations. As with other French destroyer losses, she also was cut in two
13/5 1916: Austrian "U-6" (1910, 240t, 2-45cm tt). Until 1917, only one enemy U-boat is definitely caught by the Otranto barrage - Austrian "U-6" on the night of the 13th May 1916. Trapped in the nets of patrolling British fishing drifter "Calistoga", she surfaces to be shelled by the "Dulcie Doris" and "Evening Star II", and is then scuttled by her crew some 12m ENE of Cape Otranto.

I hope this will be some help
