I would be very very wary of going any deeper than 225 m. IIRC the max crush depths for the Type VII's are around 247, and the type IX's are around 230 something.

175 doesn't sound that bad, and I don't know why you were crushed at that depth unless you had taken some damage earlier or just happened to get D/C'ed while you were that deep. I regularly go to about 150-175m if I've got some especially persistant Tommies on me and have never had any trouble. I mean aside from the hail of depth charges...hee hee
