apart from that, the trick to flower corvettes is to let them sink themselves, see my post in screenshots thread.

If you absolutely feel you have to sink an escorts, take out the most dangerous ones, a proper DD or black swan, leave the trawlers, tugs and flowers alone, they really not worth it.
@KeptinCranky
I took a look through the GWX Museum and the SH3 Museum and they both state that the draft of the Flower Corvette is "3.5 m" NOT 5m

BTW: I did not see a C2 or C3 Cargo ship, nor a T2 or Y3 Tanker listed.
