hi,

assuming that the loss position 55-33n 05-24e is correct, one may assume that the loss occurred on German minefield "62" (1000 mines, at depth 2 m), laid on May, 10, 1918 by auxiliary minelayer SENTA ex British DUNS LAW (4077 grt), a converted prize ship, see [www.german-navy.de]
The operation was covered by 2nd recconnaisance group (RAdm v Levetzow) with cruisers KÖNIGSBERG(II), KARLSRUHE(II), PILLAU and the 17th Torpedo-Half-flotilla.

greetings, Urs
