But the main problem remains gauging target speed and distance.
1) Is there a good way to measure speed, other than setting a parallel course and determining it that way, especially while submerged? I believe the u boats could get a ship’s speed by the counting the propeller rotations, is there a way of doing that in the game? Any other suggestions?

It seems you are playing 100% realism. How would you feel about using only the map position updates feature ( which results in 97% realism). Then you get the target´s position which makes for much easier speed calculations, using the 3 min 15 sec rule or similar.
