Oh, couldn't they have 2 tours (one of which you get to go down the hatch), or have placed the hole somewhere else? I'd have much rather seen a set of stairs going down into it from the deck...
From a insurance/liability standpoint it is not recommend. There is plenty of compartments on the Torsk that do not have access for visitors. The Torsk has stairs to enter and exit. What she does not have is a nice building surrounding and protecting her from the elements like U-505. However, it is kind of cool to see her in the water which is her natural habitat.
