Raiding Scapa isn't too bad long as you plan ahead. Knowing that there's gonna be 4-6 destroyers to make it out you're probably gonna need to take a few of them out. Once you get into the harbor there's usually at least 1, sometime 2 DD's that are sitting idle, take them out first and then hug the coast to position yourself for whatever targets are moored there. Gotta watch out for the subnets, they can either ruin your shot or cause major damage. Have found hiding next to a sunken ship is generally a good place to reload as it doesn't seem to attract attention.
If/when you find yourself getting harrassed by a DD there's an easy way to take them out; just have to be prepared and hope you don't get a dud. Once they pass over you pop up your attack scope and wait till they hit 300m; fire a T1a at fast speed and there's a very good chance they won't have enough time to accelerate or turn much. In such short range can usually score a shot directly to the stern and blow it to pieces.
