Re: unknown steamer attacked by S.M. U 20

Simon,

Narragansett was a tanker: See [www.uboat.net]
Etonian: Leyland line, see [www.uboat.net]
City of Exeter: Built 1914, Ellerman Lines.

If "Cunard steamer" could be in a general sense a vessel that carries passengers, than either Etonian or City of Exeter could be the answer.

I took a fast look at my database of patrols, and U 20 seems to be the only U-boat in the area. I don't have U 20's KTB, but it should be note how many large vessels were chased/fired at.

Best wishes,
Michael
