A baffling maritime mystery unfolded off the coast of Islay over two decades ago when two fishermen unexpectedly reeled in a distinctive 'yellow submarine', their surprising catch sparking months of intrigue.
John Baker, then 69, was fishing just miles offshore from the Inner Hebrides island in May 2005 when his nets snared the peculiar vessel. He successfully reeled in the 10ft craft, which weighed approximately 850kg, bearing clear Royal Navy markings on its hull.
