ʻO ka wai hauʻoli kahi hale kupapaʻu o nā moku a me nā kānaka
ʻO Scapa Flow, ke kino o ka wai hohonu i hoʻopuniʻia e ka mokuʻo Orkney,ʻo Scotland, he wahi hoʻokae no nā moku kaua ma mua o nā manawaʻo Viking. Uaʻikeʻo ia i kekahi o nāʻoihana moku nui aʻoi loa o nā mokuʻelua o ke Kaua Honua. I kēia lā,ʻo ka'eneki honua o Scotland he mea momona no nāʻike a me nā hōʻailona manuahi iʻikeʻia i ka hale kāpili o kāna moku a me kāna mau moku kaulanaʻo WWI.
ʻO ka haʻaluluʻana o ka moku Kelemānia
Ma hope o ka Armistice o ke Kaua Honuakahi, ua kauohaʻia nā moku he 32 o ke Keʻena Nui Keʻenaʻo Selepa i Scapa e mālamaʻia i ka manawa e mau ai ka kūkākūkāʻana i ka hoihoi.
Hoʻomaha lākou no 10 mau mahina, lilo lākou i mea hoʻokipa huakaʻi.
I ka hōʻeaʻana aku o ka hōʻailona o ke kūlana hanohano, ua hoʻomākaukauʻo Admiral von Reuter, ke kāpena o Siamana, e hoʻopau i kānaʻoihana kālepa ma mua o ka nānāʻana i ka hāʻuleʻana i lalo o ka mana Pelekānia. I ka lā 21 o Iune, 1919, ua holo akula nā'auwaʻa Pelekāne ma kahiʻoihana, a hāʻawiʻo ia i ke kauoha e hoʻopū i nā moku. Pau nā 74 a pau i lalo i nā minuke. ʻO kaʻoihana nui loa ia o nā moku moku ma ka mōʻaukala.
ʻOiai ka hapa nui o nā moku i hoʻoneʻeʻia i ka makahiki 1920,ʻewalu mau moku e noho ana ma Scapa Flow.
ʻO ka hapa nui o nā luina Kelemānia ma uka o ka'āina i ka wā i luʻu ai ka moku Kelemānia. Ua kauʻia nāʻelele kau moku a ua hoʻopakeleʻia nā mea a pau. ʻO kahi'āpana ma kekahi wahi'ē aʻe o ka Flow marks kahiʻoihana nui aʻe o nā kānaka.
Ka hāʻuleʻana o ka HMS Royal Oak
I ka hoʻomakaʻana o ke Kaua Honua II, ua hoʻonohonohoʻia kahi hapa nui o nā Navy Royal o British ma kona hui mua, Scapa Flow.
Ma ka pō oʻOkakopa 13, 1939, ua komo kahi moku Kelemāniaʻo U-Boat i ka holo ma o ka puka komo hikina. Hoʻopiʻiʻo ia i ka HMS Royal Oak, he moku kaua i hoʻohanaʻia i hale noho no nā hoea i hoʻonohonohoʻia ma Orkney. ʻO ka 1,400 ma luna o ka moku, 833 i make i ka wā i holo ai ka moku. I kēia lā,ʻo ka pūnaeweleʻo Royal Oak kahi lua kupapaʻu i palekanaʻia, i kahakahaʻia e kahi mele a me kahi paila o kaʻaila e hele mau ana.
Hoʻopiliʻia ka pūnaewele hikina i Scapa Flow i ke kūkuluʻiaʻana o nā kālepa Churchill e kākoʻo nei i kahi alahele ma waena o ka moku'āinaʻo Orkney a me nā moku liʻiliʻi o Burray a me South Ronaldsay.
No ka luʻu aʻaʻole hoʻi e hoʻopau i nā weluwelu German
Hoʻokumu kekahi o Orkney i kahi e alakaʻiʻia ai eʻike i nā'auwaʻa Giamana a me ka pua a me nā iʻa o Scapa Flow:
- Ke holo neiʻo Scapa Flow Diving Centre i kahi moku kū moku no ka lawaiʻa, ka luʻuʻana a me kaʻikeʻana i ka holo.
- ʻO ka Scapa He'ōpiliʻo PADI a me kahi hale kūʻai. Hāʻawi lākou i nā pipi alakaʻi, nā ukana waiwai, nā pale pale a me nā papa Nitrox.
- ʻO ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike Nalu Stromness Hoʻohana piha i nā moku no ka Scapa Tūkomi Palapala a lawe i ka Nitrox no nā mea kūpono e pupuhi.
ʻOiai ināʻaʻoleʻoe e luhi, hiki iāʻoe keʻimi hou i ka wai o Scapa Flow me ke kōkua o kahi kaʻa kaʻa i kahi kaʻawaleʻole (ROV). Hoʻolimalimaʻia nā huakaʻiʻo Roving Eye Boat iʻekolu hola o ka Scapa Flow, hoʻopau i ka hoʻohaʻahaʻaʻana i kā lākou ROV eʻimi i kahi o nā weluwelu German. Hiki i ka huakaʻi holoʻokoʻa he mau manawa e hoʻokokoke aku ai i ko Koloka mau koleka nui a me ka piha o nā koleka, nā blackbacks, nā gannets, nā guillemots a me nā'aneto.
