What was this successor then ? Not heard of this before

I don't know; I'm quoting what the owner told me. Perhaps it was the F-Boat.

Pretty sure there was one of these up at the end of a sea loch in argyle when I was younger, pretty sure it was german I mean, big though, always had a little chimney with peat smoke coming ut of it, some old dude lived in it. Chimney straight and boat sitting at about a 40 degree angle on the beach!

The next class of fast attack craft the Germans had was in the 50's, it was the Jaguar class.
Even today they still use fast attack craft as do a few navies. I cheated and googled it
