Unfortunately not quite understand my post quoting Topp. He said (If I remember correctly, this interview was available in SH2 video resources) that it is enough to go down 1-2 m below the wave base, not below the mean sea level. If the wave has a height of 10 m, the wave peak is about 5 m above this level, and the base about 5 m below this level. In this case, the expression Topp that would go down so deep to the top of the U-boat found at a depth of 7m, which would give the depth of the type VII keel at a level about 15-16m. Then the rocking ship should not be felt, which suffice to safely reload torpedoes. This does not mean that there would be no problem with maintaining a constant depth, or that water movement would not affect the ship.

ps. SH3 full HD resolution (and even HD4K) is possible...

Have a nice day.
