BF10?
 
First patrol of a new career, and I get assigned BF10...... but I cant seem to find it...... It's prewar and I'm sailing out of Wilhelmshaven in a 7b.


Also, Just north of the barrier islands of the Netherlands, pretty much north of Amsterdam, I spotted a tug boat, sitting idle, right beside another ship with two light house type masts blaring away. I'm assuming this is a rally point for shipping to meet up with the tugs for escort into the interior ports?

Going to bump this as I never got an answer to this question, more curious than anything. I did a google search but nothing came up that really answered it.

It's a lightship to indicate dangerous waters. It's part of the "environment" so it cannot be sunk.

The tugboat is there so your lookouts will spot it and call it out. If the tugboat wasn't there, the lookouts would not "see" it since the lightship is classed as an environmental object.
