I don't believe the mods you run are to blame for the failed saves because this issue goes back to stock sh3, but there are things you can do to minimise the risk of a ctd. This is what works for me.
After I have committed myself to starting a patrol I try to complete it by returning to base and then closing the game down. I have never had a saved game fail to load as long as my u boat is in base.
However if I have to save my game while still at sea then I make sure i am far away from land, from other ships and also that my u boat is on the surface. The save game usually (but not always) loads.
If I make more than one quick save during a patrol then the saves after the first one usually ctd.
My point is this, try to avoid saving games at sea, if you have to then make one quick save only, sticking to the rules above.
Making multiple saves during the same patrol is a waste of time.
