Very good point. I tried this yesterday, I sit on the bottom (65 m) repaired my damage, rig for silent running ,set course to 10, left the sea floor with 1 knots. however a few minutes later the DD which was hovering on the surface ,started to ping again. Got away securely.
The Year is 1940,Scapa Flow. Terrific Weather, can't see further than 600-700 meters. Lots of DD patrolling there

I wonder why

While heading for the western Cost of England, I Sunk 1 A&B Class with magnetic torpedo
