you can set up your boat so only the bridge is above water, and manable.
you can play with the depth to bring up more of the boat, or less if you desire.
crash depth times when only the tower is showing, are incredibly fast.

well worth doing when cruising in daylight. means when the planes turn up you can get down deep really fast.
I was just wondering about this. How realistic is this? I've done it in game, I mean, was it really done during the war? You never see footage of ships half-submerged, cruising along in order to lower their profile and avoid detection that way. It's like a poor-man's snorkel And presumably you're still on diesel engines?
