Think about how low to the water a sub is, combine that with the almost neutral boyancy (compared with a normal boat), a very poor ability to self right itself, and you have something that cannot function very well in serious weather.

this is something we should instead of reacting against take it as part of the experience, often the weather was just plain bad and a sub could not engage under those conditions.
Aint that the truth. One of the patrols I did had bad weather for some 44 days.
Lot of opportunities slipped by
