Seems like with that much hull showing, there should be more sail...

My first thought was tiny island.

I think Sweden needs to pull the plug and drain the Baltic Sea. It's become an attractive nuisance.

According to the Swedish military they will have finished the investigation within the next two months.
Two months to examine photographic evidence? I guess they get paid by the hour!

Agreed on the strange lack of sail, unless it's actually just under the surface and what looks like a hull on the surface is the disturbance of the water.

Admit it: it was you in your private submarine!

No, seriously: what kind of phenomenon is this? It definitely doesn't look like a sub to me, but I find the long wake rather interesting.

not all submarines are fitted with sails. The Yugoslavian Una (AKA Velbit) class is one.
