Can anyone else see torpedo boats?

A view of the North Sea on a sunny day. To be fair to the Kamchatka, it was night time when it was attacked by Japanese torpedo boats/spotted the Hull trawler fleet (delete as appropriate to whether you are on the Kamchatka or not). Luckily the Russian gunnery was so poor that only two British and two Russians died, but it nearly started a war with Russia. Not funny, really, but every time I look at the North Sea I just have a wee check for torpedo boats...
