34 k of mercants in less than 4 hours
 
I left Vigo and I was heading north to my favorite hunting grounds (BF 13-17) when i came up 2 large merchants (french flag). I sunk both and after a 3 hours i sunk two more large mercants (french flag also).

It took me 4 torpedoes and around 90 deck gun shells but was totally worth it....

BF 74 and BF 75 (NW of Ferrol)...Never been here before,love it! Late May '40.

You'll often find a small convoy - 1 DD + 2 or 3 merchants - traveling from BF 74/75 north-northeast through BF 43 (GWX3.0). I wait for them to use my last one or two eels before sailing back to St.Nazaire.
