T'wasn't me. I always go at Ahead 1/3 when travelling. Once at my patrol zone I use Ahead Slow. Curious thing, though: using the NASA Battery Fix I noticed that a Type II can't do more than about 12 hours at Ahead Slow submerged, but if I manually set it for 2 knots it lasts way more than 24 hours.
