This is a researchable question, as WWI U-boat war diaries (KTBs) survive. I have most of them on microfilm, but unfortunately can't currently access a microfilm reader…

There certainly was a U-boat in the Irish Sea on June 5, 1918: U 96 (Jeß), which sank the British steamer Polwell off Dublin. Her KTB is where I’d start looking. Perhaps someone else has a copy of it at hand?

Best wishes,
Michael
