Depends how far away you got your intell as to whether they are still there or not

example

HMS Hood

21–22 September: At Scapa Flow

22–23 September: At sea covering raid in the Skagerrak. Escort ships sighted a U-boat and mine during the foray

23–25 September: At Scapa Flow

25–27 September: At sea with H.M.S.'s Nelson, Rodney, Repulse, Ark Royal, 18th Cruiser Squadron and X destroyers to provide distant cover for rescue of damaged submarine HMS/m. Spearfish from Horns Reef /Dogger Bank.

27 September–01 October: At Scapa Flow.

01–02 October: En route to Loch Ewe with H.M.S. Nelson.

02–05 October: At Loch Ewe.

They arent like the German heavy units which spent months in the same port

Scapa is easy, just enter from the East, and stay East.
(Same thing about the canal: stay near to France, only 2 trawlers between 1939-1940)

Teho, are you playing the stock game? Scapa should never be easy, and the English Channel should be a death trap.

Okay, I'm the new one to the I've Been To Scapa and Haven't Been Wabo'd to Death on the Way Out Club. Unfortunately, no pics (CTD right before I took them...Ubisoft scum...), but I did sink the Aux Cruiser and two DDs. :D

SH3+1.4b+GWX

It is very easy to survive if you know where the destroyers patrol. In the channel, i travel surfaced so near to France that i can see the buildings etc. Like i said, only trawlers and elcos there. The worst place seems to be near Dieppe, 2 trawlers there. On my last run i Deck-gunned the other armed trawler. First shot blew her main gun out. :cool:
