You should try the NYGM super-mod
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=139231 It's a vast improvement over stock, and a lot lighter on your computer than GWX.
It has an entirely different sinking model from stock (100% flooding)- so you'll very rarely see a ship split in half. Read the manual for details, and also note the optional mods that come with it (in particular restoring standard map contacts - by default they are semi-hidden in NYGM - probably a bit too challenging if you're just starting to learn the game).

That's good advice. If you unlock your target and set your sights just ahead of her, you can fire torpedos at different parts of the ship as they cross the wire - just as long as the green triangle is showing. Just remember to open the torpedo doors first
