Per my research, the first sub tender came to MW in late August '44, and were gone by February. I don't have on the top of my head when the PT base became operational, but it's not entirely reasonable for subs to be able to refit at a surface forces base. I intend to open bases for refit when the sub tenders arrive, and keep them open after the tenders leave if shore installations are present/developed and the base was not abandoned. Thus MW will be available for the last 12 months of the war. However, by then, you're probably better off operating from Guam, Saipan, or Subic Bay (where the last MW tender went).
