If you're going to intercept ahead of the line, you'll have the luxury to set up whereever you choose at a 90 AoB and wait it out for however long or short it takes. I have found though, the longer you have to wait the odds increase that the convoy will change its bearing and there you sit...!
OK I must say I haven't tried that in GWX yet, in GW 1.1a I experienced that I was spotted almost everytime when being ahead of a convoy and tried to quickly move to its sides. So almost everytime I broke into the convoi and started shooting the most valuable merchants passing by at port and starbord.
