Your Longest Patrol

[Stealth Hunter]

Mine was 60 game days in a VIIC patrolling the French coast in August 1944.

78 days with U-124 in front of Freetown (WaW career)

[T.Von Hogan]

69 days (MAR 18 40 - MAY 25 40) in a IXB type U-123, started in Wilhelmshaven. Sent to EJ66, where I only met 1 neutral coastal vessel, and on my way back (to Cadiz because of low fuel) I stopped at Western entrance to Gibraltar - sunk 18 ships in 24 days there. It was one of very few patrols ended with undamaged hull. :)

From my SH3 Commander Personnel file:
Patrol results
Crew losses: 0
Ships sunk: 20
Aircraft destroyed: 0
Patrol tonage: 230941 tons

It was GXW 1.03 almost a year ago, and I picked only the largest targets when W of Gibraltar.

LOL :rotfl:

I once recorded an 85-day patrol in a VIIb. Totally unrealistic, and I have no idea how it happened, but when I went back and counted again, there it was. Also, it was early war, so no refueling or anything like that.

Only happened once.

[kiwikapitan]

85 days in my trusty Type IX. 42 days to my patrol area off South African cape, then re-fuel at milch cow before the long voyage home which took another 43 days. Bagged 5 merchants worth 33.000 tons. :cool:

[SurfnSea]

Well, I'm on it at the moment. I just started my first GWX 2.0 campaign. I left port on 09/01/39 and it's currently 09/26; havn't fired a torpedo yet but have deck gunned 3 merchants. Currently tracking down a large convoy.
