In late 1960, ''Skipjack'' violated Soviet territorial waters by sailing up [[Kola Bay]] while submerged. She passed within {{convert|30-40|yards}} of a pier at [[Murmansk]]. The submarine's location data recorder was deliberately disabled to prevent the incursion from producing an official record.{{sfn|Sontag|Drew|Drew|1999|loc=chpt. 2}} Upon returning from this mission, ''Skipjack'' spent the remainder of 1960 in a restricted yard of availability and upkeep. |

In January 1962, ''Skipjack'' operated out of [[Key West, Florida]], for two weeks before entering the [[Portsmouth Naval Shipyard]] in [[Maine]] for extensive overhaul, lasting four and one-half months. Following her return to New London, Connecticut, the submarine operated locally prior to departing in October for duty in the Mediterranean with the [[U.S. 6th Fleet|Sixth Fleet]]. During this tour, ''Skipjack'' participated in various fleet and [[NATO]] exercises and visited [[Toulon]], France; and [[La Spezia]] and [[Naples]], Italy, before returning to New London. In this year, the Skipjack also conducted the fastest submerged transit of the Atlantic Ocean on record, which is a record that still stands. |
