What I would do is head out for another patrol instead and gain some extra renown to make it easier on the stripes I've earned. I'd want as much cushion as possible to retain rank and still be able to purchase and upgrade a new boat. Just my preference, though.
OTOH you could save and exit the game, then set your number of days in SH3C according to your calculations, then reload your save and dock. You'll burn a few days in the transfer, too, if I'm not mistaken. When all else fails, upgrade your flak guns a few times, they should cost 0 renown. When I do that it advances the calendar two more days per change.
I now cede the floor to more advanced members of the group. *bow*
