Great patrol but low renown?

Running Vanilla w/ patch..

Finally upgraded from a IIA to a VIIB after my last patrol. I was only averaging 2 or 3 small ships with the IIA. Left some damaged since I didn't have the eels or deck gun to finish them off.. But finally had enough for a bigger boat.

Completed my first patrol in the VIIB. Sank around 15 ships (Mostly small & coastal merchants) and had over 32K tons almost inclusively in AN73. I had medals, promotions and quals to hand out. Received my IC 1st. class.. Went to upgrade my sub and didn't have enough renown to upgrade anything.. I think I had about 2,000 renown and that's it.. I completed both objectives, docked back in port and had 98% hull integrity... I looked at the renown list & most of my ships were 60 or 70 apiece except for the C2's I sank..

Started another patrol & looking for the bigger ships.. This patrol is taking me past scarpa flow so maybe I'll find more ships there..

What do you think my next upgrade should be??

Dang, this game is addictive..
