Are you looking at the ship time which is set to German time zone as opposed to local Florida time. You would have a 5 or 6 hour difference.

From Uboat Archieve from the KTB section:

"As a result of maintaining the ship's clocks and KTB in German Legal Time, sunrise and sunset became more and more offset from normal experience as the boat moved further east or west from base. For example, off the east coast of the US in the winter months, the sun might rise at 14:00 and set at 24:00 according to the ship's clocks.
