I know. Staying to the middle of the Jade is always safe. Anyway one of the GWX pulldown maps is of all the friendly bases and their defenses.
I'm one of these reality freaks who only does one knot at the pier, only does five within the inner harbors, and doesn't exceed cruising speed except when I'm chasing somebody, so I'm pretty much always behind the escort.
Except at Kiel, but that's only because he exits the harbor and I turn left for the Canal.
