Not read all posts since thread starter but zig zagging means you have been spotted.
My tactics on spotting a convoy/task force is go ahead, run in and dive to 300. run at two thirds until without 3000, down to 1 and periscope depth. Fire and go deep again to reload.
Grey ships sunk are normally other than torps, eg: collision. They seem to be very good at that, tonight I watched a Maya Class collide with a destroyer.
2/3 is sufficient speed when leaving an attack at 300 depth. Especially when not in calm seas.
