I was in a caribbean patrol with my IX-B and i canīt return to my home base, Lorient, y was low on fuel to do this so I dived during the day until espend about 75% of power in the batteries and surface to recharge. i change my course to the canaries islands.
Fortunately i arrive to the supply ship in the canaries islands with 30 km of fuel remaining in the tanks.
i like the realism, so i recharge fuel and torpedoes, but i donīt go to a new war patrol, i sailed to lorient and finish the long journey, my crew was just too tired to start a new patrol with one diay of rest and the boat needs some repairs in port.
