For those having trouble htting below the water line with the Deck Gun (it can be hard if the target ship is too near), you can use the rolling of your U-boat in the waves to help. The deck gun will roll up and down with your boat and if you time your shots with the 'dips' then you can aim lower. If you fire the gun at a 'peak', the shot will higher.
