I remember one of my first patrols out I ran right into the middle of a convoy. Scared the hell out of me. My watch officer says "Ship spotted!" I come up to the bridge and a merchant is no more than 20 feet off my port side. I was trying to infiltrate Scapa Flow right after the Brits declared war and I ran right into one of the sunken ships they use as barriers. impossible to see anything at 0130 in the morning with heavy rains. makes for a nerve-wracking experience.
