All right, you meandering, bunch of incompetents. This report is writen for YOU, the guy who pinkels and moans about low tonnages. It also contains information about Zombie ships.
My Zombie patrol started in Cadiz and ended there ten days later (20-30 March 1940) with 116,000 tons below my keel.
Being a very clever and perspicatious commander, once I was 40 kms from Cadiz, wnet to PD, stopped engines, and read de la Barca. At 1750 hrs. the hydroguy reported a sound contact. 30 minutes later, still with engines at stop, I surfaced and let a large freighter have it from my deck-gun from 500 meters. The next target came up 4 hours later. We had to move for this one;a small freighter violatin Spanish neutrality, creeping 4 kilomtres from the coast. We Balzed it with the DG.
Modesty prevents me to describe all my brilliant moves of the next few days. But here's a summary of good quick tonnage and below that you will find how to avoid torpedoe eating Zombies.

21 March --large freighter, 1 small freighter
22 March --2 small freighters, one medium and one large freighter
24 March --1 Large, !small freighter
25 March-- 2 large freighter, 1 medium
26 March--1 large freighter
27 March--1 large freighter
29 March--1 medium freighter.
On 23 March I torpedoed and sunk 2 large Zombie freighters (no credit for sinkings).
So I moved to Cape Sao Vicente and continued to brilliantly sinking Tommies.
Going to Cadiz to sink and resuply early in the war will give you lots of tonnage & renown. Just beware of the Zombies.
