Very cool matey!

Sometimes, just surviving and coming home with a bent boat is better than a big tonnage haul.

Nice story!

I always feel a little "sad" when I read stuff like that - cause that never happened to me. I either take only little damage that's easy to repair. Or I'm bombed away in no time and being sent to the death screen without even having time to look at the damage screen.

if you play all the time like i do and you survive into 1943-44 it will happen.

keep playing im sure you will get your chance

as rewarding as it is to save a dieing boat... i really would have rather bagged 2 tankers and a black swan for my mantle

nicely done.

I just had a similar experience a few days ago, except unfortunately the damage to my ship was too great, and she imploded at only 190 meters
You were very lucky not to implode at that depth, considering how much damage you had!

Congratz on a good escape! It is almost nice to have a bottom at 200 meters.
