Don't be afraid to scribble lines on the map like a madman.
Draw a line for all potential targets. Draw future Intersection lines. Draw a big 6nm circle for visibility. Draw your 1000yard "sweet firing range" line. Draw lines for your Evasion Route and memorize the bearing for Evasive Action (this is more important than most people think). Draw two lines forming a ever-widening WEDGE for possible shipping lane drift, bad weather drift, or random course drift. Draw lines and circles from any SUNK ship marker to simulate the very same "lines" the enemy Destroyer's are drawing up to guestimate where you could be hidding. Draw lines in the shape of a small horse riding north into the frozen tundra... wait, scratch that last bit. I've been drinking too many Hot Toddys.
