Dive boat from WOI with possibly 23 bodies aboard found in North Sea

In a Belgian part of the North Sea, an almost intact submarine of the First World War was found.

The wreck is at a depth of thirty meters, but the exact location is not disclosed. 'The submarine is in such a good condition that we assume that all those bodies are still on board,' says Decaluwé in Belgian media. 'In such a submarine there were as standard 22 crew members and a commander. 'Experts suspect that the vessel has gone to the seabed after contact with a mine.

It would be a submarine type UB-II, a German First World War. The boat would be in a relatively good condition, if there are any damage to the wreckage.

Of eleven well-known sunken submarines in Belgian waters this would be the best kept copy.
