I noticed that there are a lot of high tonnage ships going unescorted and very slow. Sank Atlantic cruise ship worth of 50000 GRT.

What year and location.
It might not be all that unusual early in the war to see big ships unescorted.

I took part in the invasion of Poland.
After tubes ran dry I hung out to watch the battles and send contact reports. A lot of big ships making a run for it... Convoys lightly cuverd.

In 1940 near straits of Gibraltar. Still i think these high tonnage ships should have atleast high speed like 15 knots or more.

@Niume

I have to agree with you. Thex should run over 15 knots.
I will have a look into the random layer!
