Try a carrier in early '42 and head out to the Luzon straight, maybe a tad to the west. I swear I couldn't surface long enough to recharge batteries. I got so paranoid I thought all the BB and CL TF's were stalking
me.
As far as sneaking on convoys and TF's I have not found it a problem. However, if I do get detected it is much harder to shake them. Pretty much time to break the engagement at that point. Maybe fire a quick few from the stern on the way out depending on breathing room.
And I would't think of pulling off something like that in shalllow water.
