Just received an email from young Buna stating he is navigating his ship MV Ryndam (with the aid of a local Pilot) full of wealthy American tourists around Tromso/Hakoy showing them the final resting place of the Tirpitz...the jammy/lucky bugga!!

Very nice. Hope he's got a good pilot, those fjords can be tricky.

Yeah it was amazing to see the buoy out the water which marked the location and to find out whats only a shallow distance beneath it, so hopefully next time we will go to the shoreline were it is, the pictures the pilot had were unreal of underwater images as the norwegians won't regard it as a resting place as they hate the Germans so there is no protection over the area, basically anyone can dive around it and have a look but its a really remote area so not many people get close to it!!!
