Default Where do I find keel depths for merchants?

I know the book for warships, is there a similar book for merchants? Is it a mod?
Thanks

Same book, it has multiple pages. The arrows are kinda small, so its easy to miss. Lottsa scrolling too, cause it lists everything for all nations.


Heres a tip if your using the automatic TDC settings, just click on the word "Ship" on the notepad in your UZO, or periscope views, the book will open to the apporpiate page to the ship your viewing. No page flipping required.

Well I never! you learn something new everyday
That has to be one of the most useful tips so far- will save me much faffing about when plotting

Thanks, I found it after I translated Handelsschiff, merchant ship. I like the idea of clicking on the notepad better.

You're right, nice to learn a new idea. I went back in and increased my percentage of shots that exploded under the ship. beautiful, perked me right up. Even made a couple of shots from behind, passing from stern to midsection. Wham! A one torp destroyer of ships.
