Wow, quite heavy! Are there any famous incidents concerning fishing-nets and U-boats?:hmm:

actually there is, on 20 Sept, 1943, u-338 fired torpedoes at convoy ON.202 and suck one merchant ship carrying miscellaneous items, many of which were oddly enough fishing nets. the boat went missing presumably by being tangled in these nets as the ship went down.

Wow, what a way to go!:cry: |
