Mea culpa; when I wrote the original article I thought the U-boat in
question was the deeper one on which the Rouses died.  If it's only 120
feet, then it's just a high-end recreational dive (so long as one doesn't
go inside or stay down terribly long).  In part, I guess the fact that it
was being asked about on techdiver at all made me jump to the conclusion
that a tech dive was in question.

Disclaimer: the nearest U-boat to where I'm sitting is in a museum in
Chicago.
