Hi guys,

Many thanks for your comments. I've been particularly impressed by both your builds. Very fine efforts indeed!

Saira, are you depicting U 552 with the netcutter and breakwaters? The netcutter was removed before breakwaters so you could go no netcutter but breakwaters there.

The wind defector was added to the top of U 69's tower particularly early. It was there during the boat's commissioning on 2nd November 1940, though not when it was launched in mid-September 1940. Some boats such as U 564 didn't have the wind deflector even as late as November 1941, though most did by that stage.

Keep up the good work.

Cheers,

Dougie
