Diving Scoop: German submarine found

A team of Denmark's most experienced divers have just found the remains of a hitherto unknown German submarine, southwest of Thyborøn.

The last German submarine that was sunk in Danish waters during the First World War, has just been found by a team of Jutland divers on Sunday summoned from Esbjerg on the mission.

Until you have been looking for the submarine, German UC 30, 80 km west of Manø, but in 2005 showed sonar recordings 157 km southwest of Thyborøn that here was a wreck, which fit in length and dimensions of the submarine.

Denmark's most experienced wreck diver
It is one of the most experienced wreck divers Gert Normann from Holstebro, who has located the wreck. U-boat sank in 1917, probably after passing on a mine.

- There simply lack two yards of the front, and we can see that all the steel is bent out, says Gert Normann for TV / MID-WEST, who had an employee on board the dive vessel Cable One during found.

The wreck has been verified
Using a remote-controlled robotic camera has dive team filmed the wreck, which lies 46 m below sea level. Compared with original drawings of the submarine, they have confirmed the wreck as the last missing German submarine.

The submarine had 26 men aboard, as it probably was hit by a mine in 1917. Three men died subsequently washed ashore at Blåvand and Sondervig, while the remains of the remaining 23 Marines probably still in the submarine. It will become clear when the divers get into the boat on their next trip in about a month.

- The explosion was so powerful that people have been either knocked unconscious or killed instantly, and then they are gone down, says Gert Normann.

The goal of diving are among others to expand the stories of the first adaptation to Maritime Warfare World War II to a planned expansion of the Shipwreck Museum in Thorsminde.
