See below for the mods I run. I made it into Truck lagoon and sank all of the capital ships, including the Yamato. The thing is, even though the bow or stern may be sitting on the bottom, it is not considered "sunk" until your crew reports the sinking. It may take 10 torpedoes for the Yamato, maybe more if you wait too long between reloading and hitting her again. It's hard to be that patient with so little water to hide in.
As for losing credits, it has happened to me when I reloaded a saved situation after sinking a number of ships. I only got final credit for any sunk in the reloaded version. And I agree that you get no credit for sinking a respawned ship. If the same type ship shows up on the same track, even farther down track, I have learned to save my torpedoes for one I can get credit for (unless I just can't help myself!).
