Don't worry, most of the time there are no targets to be found in the grid you're asked to patrol... You will often find a few on your way in, then :

1. Once you have finished patrolling your grid, you go to target rich places (search forum here, tons of tips on where to look) - which you can find also by yourself by looking at the map and think where the traffic in and out of allied harbours must transit. There are a few bottlenecks...

2. You can also simply ignore the grid if you don't feel like going there - it just brings a few extra renown points to complete the grid 24h patrol.

To complete patrol, you must dock back at base, either with the unrealistic "magic carpet ride" (Esc + Dock at xxx from anywhere) or by sailing back to base, then press Esc and "Dock at xxx".
