Remains of a Japanese mini submarine may have been found north of Sydney Harbour in 20 meters of water.  The sub, known as M24, was one of three which attacked Sydney on May 31, 1942.  The other two subs were recovered from the bottom of the harbour as the crews had killed themselves after failing to escape.  The location of the third sub had been unknown.
