Well, i'm very dissapointed, i just completed my first patrol to the US coast in my IXC but targets where very few and far between.

I had real eough weather going over there which burned up a bit more fuel, i got a little over a week patrolling before i was down to 50% fuel. I managed to make contact with only 1 merchant ship in that time! Lots of DD's and a hospital ship but only 1 merchant was very dissapointing.

I might stick to the western approaches from now on.
