Default Hitler's lost U-Boat fleet.

Old story, but I've never heard of this news.

Quote:
He has already completed successful dives to the wreckage of one vessel, U-20, two miles offshore in about 80ft of water. He believes he has discovered another, U-23, at twice that depth, three miles from the town of Agva, but bad weather forced him to suspend diving until the spring.
He thinks he is also close to pinpointing the third boat, U-19, thought to lie more than 1,000ft down, three miles from the Turkish city of Zonguldak.

OH! to be able to dive on 'Silent Otto's' old boat U-23 IIB...only a 160 ' down!; "7 ships sunk, total tonnage 11,179 GRT
2 warships sunk, total tonnage 1,410 tons
1 auxiliary warship damaged, total tonnage 1,005 GRT
1 warship damaged, total tonnage 56 tons
3 ships a total loss, total tonnage 18,199 GRT"
This little BBY paid for itself!

Cam to light a couple of years ago Jason and locations were kept secret to allow closer investigation but they are getting ever closer.
