Two years ago a fisherman located the wreck of U-1.
U-1 was lost after hitting a sea mine.
From the wreck a watertight container was salvaged which was still dry after more than 60 years on the seabed.
Inside the container was a 2-cm MG C/30 which was still in arsenal condition.
For images of this find have a look at;

He also located the wreck of U-25, but nothing came to the surface from this boat.
