Tec Dive on U-boat U-133

German submarine U-133 was a Type VIIC U-boat built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine for service during World War II. She was laid down on 10 August 1940 by Vegesacker Werft, Bremen-Vegesack as yard number 12, launched on 28 April 1941 and commissioned on 5 July that year. U-133 sank after striking a mine, probably a German one, off Aegina island Greece on 14 March 1942. Some sources credit Jerzy_Iwanow-Szajnowicz for destroying the ship. All hands were lost in the event. Wreck was located and identified in 1994 by Greek pro diver Aristotelis Zervoudis.
