UCGeek --

My boys are often gasping for air, given the intensity of the storms that my boat routinely finds itself in the middle of. But they always manage to pull through!

I know there was one incident of a U-Boat's entire watch crew being washed overboard during extremely heavy seas. No one belowdecks knew ... the boat just sailed along for hours until someone -- the next watch perhaps? -- went up and realized that there was no one on the conning tower. Anyone else recall the number of that boat?
