Probably superstition. If I'm within 250km of the UK I dive every day between 1200 and 1400 hours. That got started when I was bounced by half of the RAF sometime in 1943.
U-Boat numbers were random the first time for me. U-48 was an unintentional designation for my Type VIIB. I might stick with U-568, name of my highly successful Type VIIC that survived the war. Got a good reference book handy for the data on both.
