Well, long patrols will lower the moral. There's the cook special ability, which cooks a meal and restores some Moral. Also the Bosun I think has a passive ability that will reduce the moral lost over the course of a long patrol.
You can keep the moral pretty high with those two abilities, not confirmed but successful ship kills may raise it, I have to test this more before I call it.
Also be aware of the bug, when you load a saved game, crew moral is at zero. You can do the Cooks special every 11 hours or so. I want to say at about month 3 of my patrol I just couldn't keep their moral above 20%.
