My last patrol (patrol 14) in mid 41 put me down in ET26 with IXB I had just picked up before going out.

My crew are all veterans at this point in the war so they adapted to the new boat great. I found some stragglers on the way, but all deck gun targets so still had a full complement of torps on deck and in the tubes.

I decided to raid freetown

I found a Large tanker, Passenger liner, TONS of tramp's and small merchants.

I took the first two huge tanker and liner, then picked off a small tanker, two tramps, and some other random stuff for some 38thousand tons!

Try that, but watch for the subnet, you have to go to where the ships are anchored at the EAST side to go around it. Don't shoot torps before or it will just catch them all.
