Hunt for U-479 - The Last Patrol

Two Finnish filmmakers and a team of international divers go in search of a WWII German U-boat and attempt to uncover the facts of a 60-year mystery. The U-479 went missing in November 1944, in the Gulf of Finland. Soviet sources claimed that their submarine, the Lembit sunk the boat, but the official story has never been considered a satisfactory explanation so the filmmakers decide to do some digging of their own.

In the final episode the team make the journey to the Finnish archipelago to hear the story of the world’s only intact treasure ship, the Vrouw Maria. The following day they finally reach their destination, meeting a side scan sonar expert to explore the mystery behind the submarine Lembit and U-479 collision. Having achieved their mission in solving the mystery the team head home, taking a last dive into the English Channel and make plans for future diving adventures.
