snuck into a harbour (hartleypool) the other day and sank a C3 sat at the docks. obviously being in 20 meters of water she didn't exactly sink, but she broke in half and one side rolled 45 degree's onto the dock the bridge became one with the concrete dock.
it was wierd.

also it was the first time i ever slipped into port with a type VIIc tho to be fair the weather was so bad i couldn't see the c3 until i was 300m from it.

The stories a true one...it was in the days of sail (napoleonic era I think). A French ship ran aground on coastal rocks and a monkey dressed in a French naval uniform was washed ashore amongst the debris (apparently it was popular in those days for skippers to have them as pets).
The locals realising the uniform was that of an enemy thought it must be a spy so they hung the poor little bugger ...And that my friend is a true story and not a 'wind up'
