One of my favorite returns was very early in the morning (game time, not...well, maybe it was real time too)...anyway, it was 0-dark-30 and there was a heavy fog with rain. I could hear the ships' horns tooting, cruising into the harbor at 1 knot, couldn't see anything beyond about 100 meters; creeped all the way to the pen. Could barely make out the people and the propaganda posters.

Very eerie, very fun. Yeah, sailing all the way back can have its rewards.
