I redid that last mission to Hokkaido. Came back with 65,000 tonnes. Half my loadout was duds.

Seems the patrol boats are the most aggressive. I found two both used as coastal escorts of small convoys. The Atami river patrol boat, while not finding me did a much better job of heading the scene and trying to find me than DD, DE and others have.

The Hira river patrol boat had no engines sounds and its propellers did not move while it was in motion. This was observed for a few hours so I know it wasn't a sprint and drift technique.
