Wow! In two weeks you managed to get to your patrol grid, go on to the North, sink 32 merchants and 6 Frigates? What realism level is that?

Like SleightOfHand, I generally fire 2 torps at each target, of which I can (reasonably) expect 1 to hit. On my current patrol (Type VIIb, 1940) I've got 4 torps left - 2 at the front, 2 at the back - and have sunk 15k tonnes, or two large merchants. Your mission puts me to shame!

However, I assume (hope and prey - for the sake of my pride) that the IX has more than 14 eels.

Perhaps I should start trying to sink the escorts first so that I can get my deck gun into action?
