Are there guns on the one you are referring to, but it's just an inappropriate flak decking configuration for the boat? I had always referred to "wintergarden" as the "porches", fore and aft, for the mounting of flak guns, but I know some refer specifically to the Type VII U-flak boat version as "wintergarden"...

I already noticed a type IX (maybe the IXB?) has second rear flak directly on deck, like the front deck gun...and no rear winter garden.
Maybe it’s the one Peter is referring to?

When i will come to this one for importation, i’ll See if it is normal or not.
Maybe it’s normal though...

OM has so many different turms and hulls, it’s driving me mad sometimes.
Not that easy to find out my way through all this!
