Default armed trawlers...indestructable???

Serously...I put about 10 shells into him and he just kept sailing away shooting his main gun at me, I lost every time. Can't stay under any longer only got about 6% battery left, and although he hasn't got DC rails anymore im low on air and theres a second trawler WITH dc's inbound. How do I get out of this?

Surface and run
Alter course slightly to avoid his guns
You will be faster than him unless in a type 2

And jettison stuff out the stern to block it's path as you're running away, like crates of grapefruit, Bernhard etc. always works.

I cant run they just blast me with the deck gun which is one of the main guns from a DD im dead within a minute. Even if I put about 10 shells in it and its completely ablaze they just keep firing with the machine guns and all of a sudden my uboat is destroyed even though I'm quite happily going flank speed on the surface.

Well if you are in that much of a bind you really only have 3 choices

Surface and run altering course very often
PD and blow the thing out the water
Die

If you have any torpedoes and you can get him to chase you while at PD, send a magnetic under his butt and blow him away.

Option number 4, go down the pub.

Option number 5, you should know better.
