4. once the ships stern ends on the crosshair from bow to stern stop the clock

5 divided the the lenght of the ship by the secs on the clock

lenght./sec
multiply that by 1.9
and that will give you the speed of the ship

Hint if you are attacking a convoy . most all of the ships except the warships are travelling at the same speed

there are some video tutrials using a cronometer , under stoaiams vedieos that will also give you another option for a method

"FRY SOME BREAKFAST ON A BURNIING FRIEGHTER "
It's probably worth noting that for this method you will get more accurate speeds estimations if you are completely stopped.
