Of course you can tell them to aim at the waterline. I don't shoot the gun myself because real captains didn't...well, sometimes just for fun. Also, the crew is usually less accurate than the player.

btw does anyone know if the arour-piercing or the highly explosive shells are especially good at sinking any kind of ships?? is there any strategy to be used?? ie. first armour piercing to open a hole, then highly explosives...??? or is armour piercing always best?

I'm not sure what the difference is in the game. In real life nobody made an armor-piercing shell smaller than 6", and those were out of style by WWII, 8" being the smallest. There was a "semi-armor-piercing" or "common" shell, but submarines never carried it. Or starshells either. HE was it for the real u-boats.
