Hi Ali

She is believed to be SM U 77, an Imperial German U-boat of the Type UE I ocean mine-laying class, lost around July 1916 (date of actual loss and reason are unknown). The wreck lies in a depth of 40m, lowest astronomical depth. However she has not been positively identified to date.
Reference: 56 03’ .706 N 002 29’ .635 W (WGS84)
Location: 3.69-miles NNE from Dunbar Tower.

Cheers Ron
