Thank you for your replies. So it was indeed the same submarine that landed Roger Casement, although under another commander (Raimund Weisbach).

And while we're at it:

On the 16th April [1918] a German U-boat was sighted in the vicinity of the Kish lightship in Dublin Bay, and two men, named Robert and James Cotter, who were Sinn Feiners — one of them a brother-in-law of De Valera — were intercepted at 4 a.m. next morning in a sailing boat off Kingstown. They were prosecuted and convicted for violating Admiralty Regulations. There was reason to believe they were communicating with the submarine.
