There might be, SubHunter88, and if so I'm sure that one of the many experienced Kaleuns around here will share. As far as my personal experience goes, however, I haven't been able to find an even remotely "easy" way of getting through there, and I've been trying since SH3.
Also, if you keep your cruise speed at around 7.5 knots you won't use that much fuel. At least not compared to what the VII has in the tank and how little you'll need once you're in the western approaches. The VII has plenty of range for that.
As to the long trip there, load up your Gramophone with good music and enjoy the visuals. This is actually one of the very rare sims where the visuals are so good that I sometimes find myself staying in TCx1 just to admire them from the bridge
Or use Time Compression. Just remember: When outside of the comfort zone of the Fatherland, Travel Mode is NOT your friend. Be sure to disable it.
Welcome to the Kriegsmarine, Herr Kaleun!
