Michael Lowrey Posted 11 February , 2006 Share Posted 11 February , 2006 Cullest, a Q-ship, was sunk by U 97. With the use of unrestricted submarine warfare, the defensive arming of merchant ships, and the introduction of convoys, Q-ships become even more dangerous to serve on and a lot less effective at sinking U-boats.
