For those bold, cheating or just plain lucky (I was the third), on the 31st of December 1944 in Grid AM 36, about 6 30 in the morning, two battleships with 8 escorts ran over me. Two well aimed torpedos were able to find the spot between the armor belt and torpedo blisters and sink the elderly HMS Revenge. The HMS Rodney proved to be far more durable, two torpedos wounded her and slowed her enough that two more torpedos could carry the killing blow. The depth is 112 meters and I was able to cuddle close to the sinking hulks, being lost amongst the twisted wreckage and after 2 horrible days I was able to slither away.
