Hi Karnivor, welcome to SUBSIM.

Were they definitely flying the British flag or something like it? British flagged ships after the 3rd Sep `39 shouldn't be recorded as a neutral. Can't remember if ALL the British dependancies and commonwealth countries were enemy at this stage though.

welcome aboard
 

Welcome Aboard :sunny:

I spotted an unescorted Small Depot ship in the Pentland Firth in October of '39, it was dark and not moving. Not believing my luck, I made a submerged approach and fired a single torpedo, it hit and began going down. I go take a look at it with the external cam and....IT'S GOT A DUTCH FLAG! I made my IWO sleep on the deck plates for a day.

Could be worse,
Late Sept 39 am cruising west across the north sea, just north of Holland and I encounter a lone merchant coming the other way
its dark so I creep up to check the flag, the 3 stripes are vertical so it's not dutch so I let frenchie have it

Bloody Belgians :down:

The worst is off Gibraltar, those Spanish flagged Large Passenger/Cargo ships look SOOOOO tempting.
