In which case the answer is of course no. I'd go fight with "the boys in the woods" here in Norway.

Or do you mean "if there was a u-boat for sale and you had a hundred million dollars, would you buy one"?

Mayhaps. I could turn it into a floating museum or something. Probably not, though.

As for the type, I'd pick a Type II. Smallest one, the least crew, less people on payroll.
I mean a "U-Boat for sale or money to build one yourself" scene.

I believe I found a Wiskey class for only 500k $, retired in 1991. But I guess it was probably a hoax! :hmm:
