Bad weather just frustrates me as I generally like to shadow them on the surface at about 5000m, take my time and run a parrallel course while I do the plotting on the map and get their speed and such. They don't seem to notice me yet, but I guess over time they will become better at spotting me at this range?

I suppose I could just use the training torpedo attack missions but it seems more fun to learn on the job!

I think I'll take the advice and stick to the N Atlantic for now, as at the moment I'm avoiding/hiding/running from anything that can shoot back!
Starting in 41' some merchants will begin to arm themselves, by 42' pretty much everything is armed. At that point bad weather becomes a welcome friend allowing you to cruise more on the surface; ime ships sink easier in bad weather.
