To add to the wise and repeated advice of avoiding shallow water (<150m) Avoid the English Channel, period. Except in the early phases of the war where one could get away with going through, the Channel is a deathtrap. The weather is almost always foul (no deck gun) and the depth rarely gets greather than 100 meters. The worst parts are the Straights of Dover, The Western Approaches between Penzance and Plymouth and the midpoint near Portsmouth.
