И такое было.
Рекорд держит Перье со 194 потопленным кораблем. И всего 4 торпедами, остальное пушкой.
"Мы останавливали корабли, экипаж высаживался в лодки, мы проверяли судовую документацию, объясняли как добраться до ближайшего порта и топили корабль"
Аж слезы вышибло. Аплодисменты. Занавес.

Lothar von Arnauld de la Periere (1886 - 1941), who was to become the most successful U-boat skipper of all time, a record which still stands. During his war time career, he fired only four torpedoes (one miss) and sank his victims (194 ships totalling 454,000 tons) always strictly according to prize rules with his boat's 88 mm deck gun. His patrol performance was outstanding: in April/May 1916 he sank 23 ships, totalling 68,000 tons on a five week patrol and in July/August 1916 in four weeks he sank 54 ships, totalling 91,150 tons.
Arnauld, who stayed in command of SM U 35 until 1918 and conducted 15 war patrols with it, later commented on this patrol:
"My record cruise was quite tame and dull. We stopped the vessels. The crews boarded the lifeboats. We inspected the ships' documents, told the crews how they could reach the next port and then sank the stopped prize."
