Germans Invade Clarence Dock

Well not exactly an invasion as such but this last week we've had a visit from the U-Boat Narrowboat U8047.  Some may have heard of this on the news last year! This funny old fellow is currently offering free tours around the vessel parked in front of the Armouries on the visitor mooring.  Donations for upkeep accepted.  Obviously it takes a lot of cash and effort to maintain such a technological marvel!  Interior is also fitted out with all the necessary controls you'd expect on a U Boat!
