I agree with you there Blue-Casket, and if that's the complexity of piping on a u-boat, i dread to think of how much piping a ship has.
Makes me realise that when these ships got bombed, torpedoed and shelled, as well as the obvious problems of repairing damage and staying alive, they must have been knee deep in sewage water, cooling water and drinking water as well, not to mention sea water.
Oh what a wonderful cocktail to be drowning in while you're fighting for your life

And with a name like that, i hope you're studying to be chief engineer of a surface vessel
