Manual targeting is hard for me

So I started and ended my first campaign trying 100% realism.

I can't hit anything.

I had a perfect line-up on a ship. It was a granville freighter. I ID'd it, got it's range with stadiometer (it was reading about 1500m, according to map it was about 1200), and used stopwatch at 60 seconds to get speed. My sub was at a dead-stop so speed should have been accurate.

When I went to TDC screen, my torpedo track was aiming BEHIND the ship!

Does anyone know a good Youtube manual targeting video in English?
