Yes, I wondered whether the Dutch O-class coastal patrol subs would venture that far out, especially at night, and in a minefield area.
The trouble with a distant sighting is that Capt. Christopher of the Healdton thought he saw a sub come to the surface, near the sinking ship, observe it for a few minutes, and then submerge again. He may have been mistaken but since he was otherwise reliable, I think he saw "something." Will order the files and look at them. Right now, off on a research trip to Texas!
