On the way to immersion, too. I have course plotting down pretty well; I am working on the hydrophone; manual targeting is next.

I already get pleasure from the increased contacts I am getting with my current hydrophone skill. The last two patrols I have been taking it down to 25 meters; all stop; listen for a couple of 360s; then I turn 45 degress at ahead 1/3 and repeat to pick up anything in the blind spots. I estimate I am getting several contacts per patrol that I had been missing by relying solely on my highly qualified and decorated radioman. After all, the area of a 30km circle is more than double that of a 20km circle.

Doesn't sound like you need any help.
