Hi John,
U-1305 was originally supposed to be allocated to the USN but because of its condition they did not accept it and it was then allocated to the Soviets. It remained at Lisahally waiting for the move, Operation Cabal. This began on 23 November 1945.
U-1407 was towed to Barrow and on 25 September 1945 it was assigned the pennant number N.25.
As U-1305 was assigned tot he Soviets it is unlikely it was given a pennant number and the reference to this on the boats page on the site is most likely an error that needs correcting.
