From U Boat operations of the Second World War - Kenneth Wynn
Quote:
.... was partially dismantled at Kiel and the stripped-down hull, weighing 140 tons, was taken on a raft made of five pontoons to Brunsbuttel, via the Kiel canal. From there the raft was taken up the Elbe as far as Dresden, where the hull was unshipped and placed on two 70 ton road transporters.
It then made a slow jurney down the autobahn as far as Ingolstadt, where it was again loaded on a raft to be towed doen the Danube to Linz.
After arrival at Linz, the boat was re-assembled and then towed between two barges down the Danube to Romania. At Galati the boat was recommissioned.
Apparenty the Germans offered to sell the boats to the Turkish government, who refused to buy them
