hi,

The 13 boats belonged to the III. torpedo boat flottilla and the Flandern torpedo boat flottilla.

At that time,
III. flottilla had the boats S 53, S 54, V 70, V 71, V 73, V 81 and G 91,
the Flandern flottilla had the boats V 47, S 61, S 63, V 67, V 68, V 69, V 74, V 77, V 82 and G 95.

Total 17 boats; I do not know which boats (13 out of 17) participated in the minelaying, some probably being down due to maintenance or repairs.

144 mines were laid, i.e. probably 12 mines per boat, the leading going without mines.

greetings, Urs
