That second site in particular has some really clear underwater shots :up:

Very intresting read and some very good pictures.
Nice find:up:

Good stuff......:up:

Loved reading Prien's actual patrol report. Thanks.:sunny:

Nice find, thanx for sharing :up:

I was so impresse about the underwater pics too...30 meters and the water was so CLEAR...outstanding place to scuba diving! :)

* And Sailor Steve you mean the U-47 logbook?

either they got permission from the MOD or they used a ROV. This is because the Royal Oak is a protected war grave.

A sad fate for one of His Majesty's Battleships

Those super-clear photos aren't photos. If you look closely you'll see the words "artists impression" underneath in small text. :know:

Wow, just look at the list of men who died on the Royal Oak (second link), and that on just one ship! :huh:
Nice find there, thanks for sharing.

EDIT: Amazing to find out it still leaks oil after 70 years.

Thanks for posting the links, a good read.:up:
