However i realized that a Flower class corvette is faster than my VIIB, in case they had noticed me i would not have been able to outrun it.
As far as i know the corvettes were good for some 12 to 14 knots, but here they easily reach the speed of an U-boat.
Thanks again, greetings and happy easter,
Catfish
