If time is not an issue, which it almost never is in the uboat war, the slowest speed eats the least fuel and is the most "efficient".

I don't understand it, could you make it more clear, please? :hmm:
I think time is not a factor here. IN SH3 any lower or higher speed with VIIB type boat will LOWER your maximum range. With higher speeds you move faster but burn the fuel like hell, with lower speeds you burn less fuel per a certain amount of time, but you also move even "more slower" - thus burning the same amount of fuel at slower speed reduces the distance you can make compared to the optimum value of 8.25 knts. Am I wrong?
