Your sonarman will give you at least an initial sonar contact report. You will see the lines on the NavMap, but the props on the ship do not move, and if you fly over to the ship (only close encounters within about 0-2.5nm count), you will not hear an engine sound. If sitting at the sonar station yourself, and you spin the head toward the ship, you will not hear it, and you will not "see" the green "contact" light lit. This is different from the "quiet" contacts of previous fame, where the light would light, but you couldn't hear them (loudly). Our suspicion (s7rikeback and myself) is that the links to the prop and audio were broken somehow - if they ever existed...

Aye, sir.
OK, back to all seriousness.
I am the captain of the (at the time) USS Perch, but now I am the captain of the USS Thresher. I can hear all ships of all kinds when they are dead in the water. I'm not sure about this last part of your question:

Maybe I will go back into the game and just sneak into a harbor, not sink any ships, and just listen if I can hear them.
