Once you get your feet on the ground with SH4 it will be much easier to go back to SH3 and have fun. Just don't make the U-Boat guys' mistake of expecting a U-Boat to behave exactly like a fleet boat. It doesn't. There is a lot of skills transfer, but some aspects must be learned and appreciated on their own merit.
Being a great submarine skipper will make you a better U-Boat skipper. It works the other way around, too, but let each boat have its own personality, quirks and advantages.
And remember, for each complaint or gripe you have about the way things work, the real submariners had 10 or a hundred! Modeling frustration is a valid part of simulation.
