If the weather is good, the watch crew usually has an edge on you. If it's foggy with limited visibility, you can usually spot things first. If you tracking a target on the surface in bad weather, you may want to stay up there with them.
If you stop underwater with zero propulsion, you have a major edge on the hydropones.

I'm guessing in your case the weather was the determining factor. The watch crew handicap in fog seems a little too much.
