Thank you for the advice concerning specialists. There were many times that I had the sonar position filled by a crew member with no experience. When I docked I gave out the machinist qualification to one of my crew. Hopefully this will minimize the go and stop situations.
Another note. This time out of the Kiel I used the preset Out of Kiel icon and I didn't have a course that ran aground. The starting spot was definately critical.
I had a bad surprize when I saved the game after the Kiel Canal. I discovered that the date was well beyond the start of WWII. So much for getting set ahead of time for hunting. I did not factor in the amount of time that gets added when at dock.
