There is a reliable record of a VIIC reaching a estimated depth of 900ft! (274m) (the depth dial in the control room was accidentaly turned off, but other dials in the ship eventualy alerted the crew)
So chances are the VIIC/42 could have desended below 1000ft

Accordig to UBOAT.NET they had a 'crush depth' of 400 meters, and most boats could go below their crush depth, so maybe 1400 ft? Interesting..., Boy would I love to have one of those babies in deep water, It would be fun to sneak away! :hmm: -Nightowl
