Thats all you need to do. Until you are working out your firing solution you don't need to be more accurate than that.

In GWX there is a fatigue penalty for having a crew on the watch tower which I believe is greater when in bad weather. Mind you if you play with no fatigue or run at TC >64x then this isn't an issue. Depending on how you play and how many crew you have running submerged can be worse because you then have to put 4 more crew into bunks. If you are not careful about which compartment they are in they may fatigue faster than if they were up top.
