Hey all.
It's my understanding that during the early stages of the sinking, steam was released at high pressure through the funnels to prevent the boilers from blowing up.
I have some questions
Is this because they generating too much steam with the engines stopped?
and what time did this stop?
If they needed to relieve steam, why were they supposedly firing up the aux. boilers in Br.1?
