That's awesome. :yeah: I was going to ask if you would take and share pictures. Kapitan does that a lot on his nautical excursions. The video you plan to take is just as good if not better.

Enjoy your trip.

Kewl, can't wait to see the sequel to the one Aktungbby posted above. On a side note, U-1105 "Black Panther" Type VIIC/41 now resting at the bottom of the Chesapeake Bay near Piney Point, Maryland. Had the improved Balkongerät 48 hydrophone suite too. It was also coated in Sneaky Pete's experimental synthetic rubber tiles to help avoid detection.

In our 2005 meeting in the Netherlands we divided us up in two groups.
The first visit Rotterdam harbour and the second group visit Bremerhaven and the XII sub.

It was Drebbel and some more incl me who visit XII
Toke lots of pictures-which is gone.

I've visited this U-Boat when I was there waaayy back in 2010. I took about 17 photos of it in total mostly of the interior and two outside, including one of my father going through one of the hatch combings the "wrong" way. Of course I went through those like a proper U-Boatmann does! :Kaleun_Salute:
