I estimate that I'm just north of Carloway (Outer Hebrides) Having closely missed Rona, I think it is - couldn't see it... Slowed my TC (16x) and sounded my way through with Depth Under Keel coming up to 25m.

All I had to do was shunt my sub up a beach on my first patrol
Visibility is zip most of the time - and every now and then, the watch tells me they can see fog I just bang my head against the periscope shell.

Navigating to 6 hourly waypoints at max TC=128... but hell's I could be just south of the Faroe Islands the way things are going
...the beautiful game. marvellous. im envious. how real can it get?
