I managed to outrun a trawler with my Ix-b boat in calm waters at 19 knts ! but i was firing with 37 cm AA gun and deck gun to the enemy.
lessons learned:
Stay stealth in shallow waters, keep an eye in your Uzo for targets, and search lights at night.
Dive inmediatelly when you detect a danger and try to put some distance between you and they.
Run silent, until when the ashcans are over you, then make a sharp turn at flank speed and try to go to deeper waters.
