All realism options checked except for Map contact updates and Weapon Officer assistance so it's 94%.
Additional mods:

Grey Wolves Expansion 3.0
SH3 Commander:

Realistic career length and crew transfers

Historic U-boat availability dates

No fatigue

Ship tonnage and U-boat crush depth randomized

Realism- and gameplay-related hardcode fixes
Just Follow Orders! V2.0

Private rules:

No restarts from previous saves unless my PC freezes or the game crashes
Immediate crash dive when sighting aircraft; manning AA-gun only if diving not possible due to e.g. external torpedo loading or damage)
Sending status report to BdU in every other day
Always patrolling the grid ordered by BdU except for engaging a convoy or any other radio combat not farther than a 10-hour run with full speed
At least two 1-hour long hydrophone checks a day in patrol grid or on waters with high traffic (grey areas on SH3 Convoy Map)

39-40: 20,000 - 40,000 GRT in average but my best result was over 80,000 with a Type VIIB.
41-43: I have never went over 25,000 with a VII against a convoy, though a Type IX patrol to the U.S. East Coast or the South Atlantic is very likely to bring better results.
43-45: What's a GRT? Returning to port in one piece is already a great success, imho.
