Fortunately we are alive and well and tracking that convoy today ...

And now for the rest of the story or the end of the story. So it is easy eh?

Well tonight with a bannana split (artfully crafted I must add) I sat at the Atlantic side of Gibraltar hoping I got in front of the convoy ... 70hrs went by and no joy. The sea was still raging - viz only 70 meters in the rain. Out of nowhere I have the HMS Beagel coming at me guns blazing. Mind you the boats record player is on and I am feeding myself the ice cream ... holy moly.

To make a long story short I take very severe damage and dare not dive. I have my damage gang working furiously. I have the boat ducking into the fog and rain. They say I have very SEVERE hull damage - 80%. Heaving globs of ice cream down my pie hole I keep using every trick to stay alive. Wagner is playing on the record player!

I need to slug down that ice cream ... and I will not lose my boat and crew.

I loose an eel on the Beagle and she tanks! My crew yells and then we learn the entire British Atlantic Fleet is bearing down. Scooping the melting ice cream furiously we run. Run hard.

With flank speed we head north using the storm and rain to help get away while shells are pelting the heaving sea around us.

Wagner! replay the Wagner I yell.

Ice cream is all over my shirt.

We head to Cadiz. We are met by a German vessel - through the haze I see other ships and lights.

My hull is torn up.

I have reflux, gurgling stomach noises and constipation.

And someone said this sim is too easy.

Burp! Brruuuuurp! Brrruuuuuuuurp!

Offgassing ......
