Noob - lost mid atlantic

[Johnnywas]

Hi

I'm new to the game and new to the forum

I've passed my Naval exams and set off on my first mission. there was a couple of great videos posted by someone who recommended this forum.

but I'm a bit worried that I'll be trawling the depths of the mid atlantic for ever and never find any enemy ships.

so I thought stay on the surface and head for the grid reference with time compression on whatever the maximum is

however that doesn't seem quite right. has anybody got any useful tips on how to track enemy ships
