Does anyone have any pictures/information on the Mk I L (water armed) fuze that goes into the Type 6 Mk I Limpet mine?

Cheers

Hi everyone. First post.

I am by no means a technical expert on this stuff (especially limpeting equipment), but I came across the following attachments during recent research and immediately thought of BOCN ;)

Instructions for the use of the Fuze, Anti-Disturbance (Water Armed) Mk. I.L.

Thank you.
Very good pictures :)
Can you tell in what book you found this pictures?
 
No book I'm afraid, it was from SRD's D/Tech Technical Bulletin No. 12 "Anti-Removal Fuse (Water)" dated April 1944.
