I now had the sea to myself so I concentrated on repairing the damage, the damage control team repaired the bulkheads, got the pumps working, got the front 3 compartments dry, so I tried a controlled dive to periscope depth, but it started to sink again at a 45% degree angle. Took it back to the surface, then I noticed that some of the watch were shaded red, when I moved the crew around to get a healthy watch I was able to submerge without sinking.

I swiped this from the patrol story thread. I found this interesting as the sub was rammed twice and hit by cannon round, three compartments flooded. Repairs made on everything but the scopes. He noticed the sub sinking even after the repairs.(like everyone else does) Also, seen injured watch crew, replaced them with healthy crew and could go to periscope depth and not sink.
Anyone have this experience with putting healthy crew on watch and being able to submerge successfully with sinking like a rock?:hmm:
