Howdy,

the 1st question: it's probably an immersion-type message that won't impact the renown you'll get for your patrol, but you could still follow BDU's directives if you wish

2nd question, you still won't make it in 3 days even through the Strait of Dover, unless you stay surfaced and go flank speed all the way, but that's going to take an awful lot of diesel and is very risky

I'm also assuming that, it being your 5th or 6th patrol you're still in 1939 or early 1940, if so the Strait might be passable, after that I'd not recommend it unless you like MTBS and planes

I don't think you'll be able to intercept that particular convoy, but don't worry there's plenty more where that came from, odds are you'll have run out of eels before even reaching the BF grids

Good hunting
