I was trying an end-around on a small convoy (single escorted ship, lol) near Truk.I was just outside that max detection circle, and I saw him in and out. I turned in, and instead of scanning myself, I got lazy, and somehow the watch missed him cause even though I was turning in from the front quarter of his circle, he appeared on my map about 1/3 closer! Doh! Crash dive! I jumped to the bridge before we went down, looked with the binos and saw a shell inbound. Second salvo found the range and damaged the periscope before we slid under.
