Uc 42 German U BoatVESSEL INFORMATION Vessel type Submarine Flag German Vessel 45 m (l), Dimensions 5 m (b), 3.7 m (d) Date of 1916 building DETAILS OF SINKING On 10 September 1917 while attempting to lay mines across the mouth of Cork Harbour in an effort to hinder shipping in the area, UC-42 was accidentally sunk. The U-boat’s loss went unnoticed until October 31st when British naval vessels minesweeping in the area detected a trail of oil floating on the sea surface just south of Roches Point. Following the detonation of a couple of depth charges, the seabed was inspected by divers on 2nd November. They confirmed that there was indeed a German submarine below, which was identified as the wreck of UC-42 DIVE INFORMATION The wreck of the UC-42 measures 45m in length, 5m in width and 3.7m in maximum height. The vessel is lying on its port side and is orientated NW–SE on the seafloor, with its bow to the SE. At the time of its original discovery, in 1917, it was heavily depth charged and the results of that are still apparent on the wreck. While the inner pressure hull is essentially intact, almost all of the outer hull is gone bar the port saddle tank, however towards the keel aft of this area the concussive effect of the depth charges on the steel can be seen very clearly
