I'm a huge fan of the area east of Scapa Flow with the Einbaum (Nickname for the Type II). I typically run to the north side of AN/21 and work south through 26 and then hang out in the center of the square made by AN16/18/40/41. Only thing to watch out for is British Naval traffic heading into or out of Scapa, every now and again I've got to hide from a DD group passing through. On the other hand, that can be a blessing, I once stumbled upon a pair of Town-class Light Cruisers, trundling along at a leisurely 11 knots, straight across my course, with no escort. I was so happy I nearly cried, instead I promptly sent both straight to the bottom of the Nordsee.
