I uninstalled Uplay, installed the current version of Uplay (uplay.ubisoft.com) and ran it and turned off automatic updates and auto-online. I then manually ran the game updater from \Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\Support\GameUpdater\gu.exe and it updated to the latest version.
I then, on a whim, installed TWoS v2.2.17 and ran TDW's Generic File Patcher without using the Uplay workaround. Then I ran the game and it works with no CTDs and no inability to start a new campaign.
