If I'm understanding you right. You only have 2 crew in the compartment? That's definitely not enough people. Fill the compartment with people. Make it full.

Malfunctions & Sabotage checked? Fuel state?

"Rockin' back and forward" is to counter the diesel will not start bug - by switching to reverse and then back to ahead?

Pardon me for asking the silliest question, but it's just to rule it out once and for all:

You say the boat runs fine under water but not on the surface. Question: Do you have the guys in the diesel engine compartment when on the surface and not in the electric motor compartment?

(again, sorry for asking this, it's just to rule it out)

And what about Malfunctions and Sabotage? Do you run SH3 Commander?

And do you have fuel?

Is the boat completely surfaced?

Do you run any modifications? Did you tinker with some files yourself?

I have no further idea what may cause your trouble.

We may need to instruct you how to take a screenshot and post it here, so you can show us your crew screen and more...

Try to upload your signature photo first.
