We not only learn from him but also from the advice coming back from Subsim and YouTube.

In episode 10 Shaefer is seen entering Helgoland where you can only refit.

I am I right in thinking that he would have to go to Wilhelmshaven and End Patrol to repair the hull damage?

I suppose it depends on how much unrepairable damage you are prepared to carry when you continue the patrol.

If I can maintain periscope depth without sinking and the analogue gauges are still working, I will usually resupply at the nearest friendly port and head back out rather than return to base.

Especially if it is a long way to and from the assigned patrol area. Those patrols on the west coast of Britain, south of the Outer Hebrides, are a long way from Wilhelmshaven!
