While tracking a convoy last night i spotted HMT Aquitania. After
the convoy had passed the ship was right in front of me, immobilized
and about to sink. I wasted no time and torpedoed her. The weather
conditions were very good: no clouds, no rain, visibility 16km and
wind speed 8 knots!
There were no reports for Uboats in the area. I wonder if such
a ship (47000 tons or so) can be sunk due to weather in SH3 world.
Still, 8 knots wind speed should be manageable for HMT Aquitania.
Even an 8000 tons ship shouldn't have any problem at such weather
but it doesn't seem to be this way.

I'm thinking loud here but, anyway, thanks for this mod Subtype Zero,
it seems i'm gonna need it.
