Yikes!
I am reading this thread with a particular interest, because I am on my first patrol in a VIIC crossing through AM 22 heading to Narvik on April 4.
(My previous boat, an IXC, finally met it's end on patrol 13, May 1944 to a HK group south of Iceland.... I'm on to GWX career two.)
Perhaps I will think twice about taking on the task force.
Thats quite a situation you've got there.
The only thing I can think of is sit tight until the Co2 is about to give out.
(but will still enough left to make an underwater run if you have to)
Hopefully they will have moved on by then. If not... I guess its blow ballast, run slow and silent until you start to drop again, and then kick the engines up to keep you off the bottom and hope for the best.
