Salute !!!

This course in steering and helmsmanship is fascinating !!! Now how about this question....

What happens when our boat is submerged. I know that a certain amount of speed is required to keep depth, but what are the ramifications of backing?

In game, if I am too close to the target track I will not reverse because I think that it is unrealistic and that the boat would probably swing too much as steerage way is lost and then regained and also holding periscope depth would be very hard.

Am I right?

Thanks,
AD
