Vlim, That's impressive. I wonder if it was a manufacture's model or crafted by a talented machinist mate. Like most Americans, the only U boat that I've been on is the U505 in Chicago. Hard to imagine a long cruise in such cramped condition. TH

It's completely hand made, the gentleman had crafted other ship models as well, including a model of the Bismarck. But that was too much for my budget.
