Default How deep have you taken you Sub?

And lived to tell the tale?

I have been down to 190 using the salmon class.

I've been down to about 350 meters before the bulkheads finally gave way...

Otherwise the max I went was about 30m below crush depth.

You're on the shallow gauge, if you hit the little button right below the gauge it will change to the deep water one. This also works for the other gauges as well, it changes to different instruments.

165 meters is the deep gauge. The shallow one is ~30 meters iirc.

Default In my Sargo early war class

The deepest I got before problems started was 350 ft and the creeks were loud enough to scare the hell out of me using a suround sound system with a subwoofer

790ft. And then made it back up to 155ft before the walls came crashing in.
