How far from Lorient does your course end? The first thing that cmoes to mind are the patrolling friendlies. It's a strange occurance that whatever course you plot you will always come very close to another vessel and high TC will only compound this as the game has not time to respond to the danger.
If you are over 300km from Lorient, there are patrolling enemy ships it's possible you have inadvertantly come acroos them.
Also, if you are approaching Lorient there is a changable minefield on the north passage and a subnet on the south passage.
All in all approaching any harbour at high TC is going to be problamatic. I usually drop to <32 TC when under 250km to harbour.

All good points. Especially the last one.
I have lost two boats from collision in / out of Biscay.
By the way, some of the u-boat pens (outline) out of Biscay are somewhat to scale yes? Take for example St Nazaire what the heck was the engineer thinking, PIA.
