Arrrggghhh!!!! My fault I suppose for not asking the question earlier (or, perhaps missing the comment previously on the forum). How I'd wished to know how far I could push the boat before running aground and not dared to ping the bottom for fear of waving the "here I am!!" flag..

But thanks.. that is indeed very good to know.

EDIT... along the same lines I suppose, but it makes sense to ask the question here: Radio reports to KM HQ (even late war)...do they give away your position/draw in the hunters?

Yes, sending a radio transmisson increases the chance of detection, or at least of aircraft showing up in your vicinity.

But only of consideration if your within the base air range.
