Hi J
Do not know what mods you are using.
If you are using a version of TDW' NewUI you can use the Watch Officer Icon and he will give you the bearing and range to the target.
Add this bearing to your course bearing and this will give their course.
Example targets bearing 253 + your course 185 = 438 - 360 = targets course 78 degrees.
Use your binoculars to see which way the smoke on the horizon is going or after a couple of minutes ask the WO to give you the data again.
Measure the range from your boat and draw out the targets course.
You should now be able to adjust your course to close on the target.
Hope that helps, better than nothing.
Peter
