Thanks.  I'll see if I can order it.  (Did the same author ever
re-release U-Boat?)

Neither has anyone else.  I'm not sure the Finnish Navy has
those drawings.

I was curious about what fit where on that sub.  It's very small.

CSSX certainly loses nothing by being more compact.  I imagine
you will have very good flow around the hull.

This would be wonderful!  I'm interested in all of them,
but especially the II C.  What format gives the best 
resolution with the smallest file?   I've seen simple
drawings in BMP which became larger as JPG.

Thanks.
