If I remember correctly, when this method was originally posted on the server, one of the points/notes/important details of using this method (this is the one I have personally always used) was that this gives the ideal intercept course. In order to ensure that you have sufficient time to find the contact and set up for the intercept/shot/etc, you should increase you speed by a few knots. In the example, if you are plotting your intercept at a speed of 12 knots, actually set your sub speed to 14 knots. This will allow for any variations due to wind, waves and the like and put you in position before the contact arrives.

Hope that made sense.
