Advice on route to the US please.

In game of course

.

After a long trip to Florida in my IXC which was not particulalry well planned, I got to thinking what would real life Kaleuns do to reach the US?

I headed across to Canada and then worked my way down the coast always maintaining useful depth under my keel. Would I have been better off drawing a straight line from Lorient to Florida? Well, yes fuel-wise I imagine, particularly as the weather could not have been worse than the stinker of a storm we got. But maybe I would encounter less contacts?

Anyone know what the historical routes were? Were Kaleuns left to their own devices like we are?

As mentioned in another thread I'm on my way back now via Bermuda but that's not going too well either
