Default What type of boat is this?

Regardless, it is my new desktop wallpaper, this shot is gorgeous.

Are we looking at the same U-boat? I notice 2 steering rudders, so possibly a VIIC?

Problem is the website is redirecting to the main page instead of showing whatever picture you're trying to link to.

I'm beginning to think that the host website for the image in question is very unfriendly when it comes to linking to their images.
