Thanks Gentlemen,

I did read it in one of the helpful manuals and it is something to do when actually getting closer to a ship or convoy. From what I read it just gives you a little more advantage, when getting into position. It is a bit of a trade off for the extra drag on the boat and fuel use, however, quicker crash-dives can come in handy.....
Sea state does seem to have an effect, but I will report back when I get out of the winter storms and see some smooth seas.

This has to be one of the friendliest sites on the web, as it can be daunting to ask questions as some seem to look down on you, on others [different subject matter].
It puts me in mind of the teacher , who looked at you over the top of their spectacles, which were perched on their nose. Knowledge is power, to some people.................

Suns over the yard arm, time for a gin.....well a beer anyway

Aye, Aye,

John
