Even Prien didn't go harbor-raiding. Admiral Doenitz concieved of the Scapa Flow raid after studying aerial photographs and spy reports, and he and Prien planned it for days before the actual attempt. After U-47's success the British seriously beefed up all their harbor defenses, and that was the one and only harbor raid of the war.
