Most radio messages are purely for immersion. BdU ordering u-boats through the Channel fall into this category. You only have to report to your patrol grid and sink enemy ships - nothing else. Staying out of shallow water is a good idea and you should do it. Sink ships and survive and they will stay happy.

Unless I blow off all my torpedoes quickly, I'm usually at sea betwee thirty and sixty days; sometimes a little longer.

Yeah, stay out of harbours and shallow water are well embossed on my psyche now! LOL.

That's good about the patrol duration - I'm not sure as I sit here of the length of my first 'proper' patrol but I was getting worried I was dragging it out a bit too much.

Thanks mate.
