Believe it or not UK hunter killer subs have booze on the boat. Had a ex girlfriend’s hubby show me round his boat HMS xxxxxx

and had a beer in the ward room beer kegs were the stools clipped to the floor with cushion covers over them to sit on lol

So how many crates of canned beer would be needed to sink a boat even all stacked on one side.  I think its just a good story as they found a few cases onboard.  I weigh the equivalent of 160 cans so unless there were other problems that would have been thousands of cans to sink it.
