AN51 at that time (post-1940) is a pretty tough place to patrol.
typical depth for that area is 8 meters which means that you are at risk either on the surface or at PD.
if it was me and my boat, i would either penetrate the minefield by going deep and patrolling between the coast and the mine field or sit east of the minefield and ignore the objective and sink as many ships as i could.
