Running submerged on batteries does not increase your range, but will probably decrease it. When you surface and recharge, one engine is going full out (the starbord one I think) and the other is driving the boat. You should note a considerable difference in your speed at whatever setting your telegrapgh reads when you are charging and when you are not.
