Yep, Silent Service was my first subsim on the C64. I got Silent Service II for the Amiga and PC but was rather disappointed that land masses were not modelled in the second version of the game. If I remember correctly, in the second version you had to identify a ship from the manual to load the game, which was the basic anti-piracy protection that the game came with. Both versions are in my loft somewhere gathering loads of dust.
