===Sea=== [[File:HMS Ferret surrendered Uboats.jpg|upright|thumb|A mass of surrendered German U-boats at their mooring at Lisahally]] [[Londonderry Port]] at [[Lisahally]] is the United Kingdom's most westerly port and has capacity for 30,000-ton vessels. The [[Londonderry Port|Londonderry Port and Harbour Commissioners]] (LPHC) announced record turnover, record profits and record tonnage figures for the year ended March 2008. The figures are the result of a significant capital expenditure programme for the period 2000 to 2007 of about Β£22 million. Tonnage handled by LPHC increased by almost 65% between 2000 and 2007.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Londonderry Port enjoys a year of record growth |work=belfasttelegraph |url=https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/news/londonderry-port-enjoys-a-year-of-record-growth-28441090.html |access-date=6 June 2021 |issn=0307-1235 |archive-date=6 June 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210606184145/https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/news/londonderry-port-enjoys-a-year-of-record-growth-28441090.html |url-status=live}}</ref> The port gave vital [[Allies of World War II|Allied]] service in the longest-running campaign of the Second World War, the Battle of the Atlantic, and saw the surrender of the German [[U-boat]] fleet at Lisahally on 8 May 1945.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/aug/20/secondworldwar.northernireland |title=Raise the U-boat: council plans to put Nazi sub in maritime museum |last=Bowcott |first=Owen |date=20 August 2007 |work=The Guardian |access-date=19 June 2008 |location=London |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130831225711/http://www.theguardian.com/uk/2007/aug/20/secondworldwar.northernireland |archive-date=31 August 2013 |url-status=live}}</ref>
