Still Waters Posted April 29, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 29, 2017 A previously undocumented German wreck has been discovered in Scapa Flow. The vessel is believed to be a pinnace - a small boat which would have acted as a supply boat for larger ships. It is likely to have gone down with its parent ship when the German High Seas Fleet was scuttled in 1919, following the end of World War One. A team from Orkney diving boat MV Valkyrie came across the wreck after an unexpected object was picked up on sonar equipment. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-39745240 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
