Silent Hunter III from 2005 bring your game play to 2015 with the
LIVING SILENT HUNTER III EDITION 2015 Mega Mod

A popular way to take the speed is using the stopwatch on the navigation map.
Go to the navigation map.
Open up the map so you can see the targets bow.
Use the short cut key 'O' to bring up the stopwatch or an officers icon
Pause the game.
Start the stopwatch.
Mark an X on the targets bow.
Un-pause the game.
Run the stopwatch for 3 minutes and 15 seconds.
You can use a little TC.
Stop the stopwatch.
Mark an X on the targets bow again.
Measure the distance to both X marks i.e. 600 metres = 6 knots.
Draw a line through both the X Marks to make a position past the U-boat.
Take the protractor and make a 90 degree angle.
Bring the u-boat on to the protractor line to create a firing position.

You could also use a kitchen timer set to 3 minutes and 15 seconds and do it in real time.

Another way is to use the U-jagd.
