You mean the convoy on the way to Pearl Harbor in the winter of 1941 or the convoy on the way back from Pearl in 1941?
I'm not sure, but a lot of Japanese and their allies cargo/freighters hugged the coast line to stay away from American Submarines near the end of the war and like Bookworm said, most of them were armed and ready to duke it out with any captain foolish enough to attack them on the surface.
