That's exactly what I am going for. A perfect wave should "lift" a u-boat up significantly and the boat should accelerate or decelerate like surfing the waves.
I assume this would also affect periscope depth resulting in a more floating behavior when submerged. I doubt it was like it is now in SH4 where you stay at a seemingly exact depth anytime even is you conning tower surfaces every once in a while.
