I personally ignore Scapa Flow as you will not find anything there.
Only one time in 1939 did I find a Battleship in port..Otherwise the port sits empty from my experience.All I find are partolling destroyers otherwise.

Hartlepool always has the same 4 ships in it ..a T2 Tanker,C2 Cargo ship and 2 smaller merchants.

In one test I snuck into New York harbor in 1942 in an IX class boat and found absolutely nothing in harbor.No destroyers except 2 patrolling outside the harbor.I was even able to surface and sit next to the Statue of Liberty for 3 days and 3 nights and not once did I get attacked by a destroyer or aircraft.

So after tests that I ran I make it a point to stay away from harbors cause even after the 1.4 patch they still are not worth the effort as most ports I have seen are still empty except for Hartlepool.
