If your past July '40, I think Lorient should have opened as a new friendly base to refuel at. Failing that a careful trip up the chanel is the next option. I tried the method of using Cherbourg as extra anti aircraft cover on the way up, waiting there during the daylight hours as there was a German destroyer parked there. You say about a quarter of a tank left, that should be enough. Unles you have already calculated the distance and range etc. Last patrol I made it back to Wilhelmshaven with 15 Km of fuel at 5 Kts calculated by the navigation officer :p
