On the way to my assigned patrol grid AM 11 on my 5th patrol using GWX I ran across a sub contact east of Lerwick Sub Base ... Great ! I thought I would get to get a sub kill but found instead one of my fellow Kaptains hanging out at 75 meters waiting ........ the pics speak more words than I can type so .......

these next 4 pics I had to lighten up alot so they were viewable ..........

In the next pic I smiled a bit and decided to give that crew a wake up call

Ever so slowly I let myself sink ... was expecting a dull thud when my bow touched theirs but wearing headphones that loud shreek of metal scraping against each other I threw my headphones off

... I can only imagine the startled frantic screams I caused on the other boat :rotfl:

During the contact report on my navigation screen it looked like it had only traveled maybe 50 km in all .... when I woke them up they didn't move .. so I left them and went about my business .......... my DEL button didn't work to get rid of the heads up display ....
