Following on from this, does rough seas cause some ships to drop behind the main convoy? I am currently stalking a convoy off the NW coast of Ireland and after an attack where I'm proud to say I sunk a large and medium cargo I was held under for an hour or so by the escorts in their attempt to find me and finish me with DC's. After the escorts had cleared off my sound man picked up a merchant a long way behind the main convoy which I believe is a straggler. I intend to come up to PD and stick a torpedo in it when I next load up SH3. Any views on this?
