Default I did it!!!!

Today i was sailing along north of a city that starts with a b (not bergen) in norway. Not right off the coast but in un-gridded area. I was tracking a convoy when merchant sound contact to the south was heard. Well the convoy was more north. So i went to shipcam and there was an iceberg. IN Campagin!!! . I'm not pullin your leg here but why was it mistaken as a merchant. Anyway am i the first to see one in campaign? I cant but bad news i cant find the screenie but i swear i'm not pulling your legs. --mowgli

it shows up as a merchant on the map contact screen.

I encountered one ice berg on the way to the USA in the north atlantic once.

Pretty cool, but never encountered one in stock campaign only with GWX

Nice story about the zigzagging icebergs.

I saw one once when I went to Narvik somewhere in April '40...

I have yet to encounter any fish though....the only fish I ever saw were fired by me...
