As I said (and I could be wrong), it's my understanding that it was used for stealth during an attack, and they didn't normally cruise the Pacific in that condition.

Yeah, I get that, but in the cases I recall, the Captains wanted to be able to move FAST, when the fireworks started. Remember, we had a discussion about how (or if) a fleetboat was able to move at 22 knots (or 23, or whatever it was).
