Same here Every time I have dove the U-352 either my pics didn't come out or I just forgot the camera on the boat.my pic's didnt turn-out either so it will be nice to see her again!.
Charlie19:I like the show. I watch it every chance I get. However, I think the plot lines are a little too contrived. They seem to go to great lengths to establish a "mystery" that they must dive to solve. I mean, doess anyone really think they could, on 2 short dives, fully answer the question of why the sub crew surrendered? After 60+ years on the bottom, and from the state of the diesel engines and the control room, it didn't look to me like they were actually able to determine what state these were in when the battle occurred.
How did Chatterton know that the gravity fuel tank fell from one end of the overhead during the battle and not sometime during the 60 years on the bottom? I don't think they discovered anything different from what was already known from the sub crew and the cutter crew's reports.
The dive planning segment was quite short and weak. "I'll go to this end, you go to the control room. If anything bad happens we'll pull the plug and get out of there."
But the show's title mandates that they "solve" something. It would be better to just dive the wrecks because they are there and use the show to cover the history of the ship and its sinking.
