I think that's all correct?

That's correct. If you pass the the navigation exam you'll pick up the extra 1000 points. If you bypass the nav exam & dive straight into a career in 1940 or later (not sure about '39) you will start witth 500.
If you want to brush up on your gunnery skills then try to steer your your boat to where you're sailing parallel to your target. Drop to slow speed & aim for the waterline. You should be able to sink most of the targets with about 20-25 shots. This method works well with
unarmed merchants. Do not attempt it with armed merchants. Their accuracy has been signifigantly increased in GWX. When dealing with an armed merchant I would approach no closer than 2500m & keep your bow perpendicular to the target. If you should hit the gun turret, remain at a safe distance (at least 2000m) as some of the merchants have secondary weapons (MG's).
