dont forget if your sinking hard and fast and you blow ballast if you wait till your about 40 meters from the surface you can call out periscope depth and your crew will level off insted of breaking the surface.....twice now ive had a boat hovering between life and death i had all the leaks stopped but had to be silent so i couldnt pump out the water....i was there for probly about 2 hours blowing ballast sinking blowing ballast sinking and blowing ballast while being quiet before the escorts left
