[PappyCain]

Hehe - I enjoy getting out of jams as you describe. The escorts will hang until depleted, or until they have to catch up to their convoy. So I set my rudder 20 degrees and it becomes funny as they try to avoid collisions up on the surface and I circle and circle and meanwhile we are enjoying bratwurst and brown mustard, and having a talent contest using socks for puppets. As long as my boat is 100% and no damage to the pressure hull I feel ok. When there is damage, the pumps need to come on to expell water which means Adolf and the other puppets are retired to the sock drawer!
