Ironically, I found the list on U-boat.net...
638 Royal Navy Ships lost during WW2
I also found British Merchant Navy Ships Lost During WW2
This site also covers many other Allied Nations' losses in both WWs. Sombre reading.
Cheers

there is a principal problem with german numerics!!!
former german u-boat men cited their coordinates in
xx degrees yy minutes (and zz seconds)
sometimes written as xx:yy or xx.yy or so
i noticed, that many coordinates are wrongly used in the decimal manner "xx.yy" degrees -- so, some u-boats are scuttled on soil 
for example:
"xx = 10" and "yy = 30" means "10 degrees and 30 minutes" or "10 and 30/60 degrees" = 10.5 degrees,
so 10.5 degrees is correct
totally wrong is therefore "10.30 degrees" ... meaning "10 and 30/100 degrees"
[ in germany there is an other sign for the decimal point: use "," instead of "."]

The next in a series of "warships lost during World War II".
The information is grouped in two files: (1) by warship type; and (2) by year of loss.
Photos are included when available (and appropriately credited where necessary).
U-boats are grouped by type (i.e. II, VII, XXI), and pictures and data are included only in the "type" folder, not for each individual U-boat.
While there is an abundance of information on most Kriegsmarine ships, info is lacking concerning the "minehunter" classes. I've included what I've been able to find on the overlay.
U-352 is located at N34 13.620 W76 33.810 I fish it frequently.

Correct, I found the same placemark from photos taken in the final bombing runs that destroyed the Tirpitz. I had an interest as my Father flew fighter cover on one of the missions.
