South atlantic November 41

Aviv · 03-09-14, 12:41 AM

I got to reach Python in the south atlantic in early November 1941 after a long trip down past Africa. I got over 60.000 tons on the way though, thanks to meeting a big convoy coming out of Freetown and an ocean liner in the Guinea sea. I thought that since I was in the neighborhood I should try to get down to South Africa, never been there before and I don't know if I'd get the opportunity again in my career.

So my question is this: is there any particular spot or tactic in the South atlantic? Maybe is going to Argentina worth a try? I don't want to waste my time there being in the wrong square because I might never get the chance to show my crew the south seas ever again! I need the advice of expert captains!

Thanks for your help!

If you consult the map with the shipping routes you shall get your answer.
I personally avoid the region though because just not a whole lot down there.

Move south enough to GR grids area off Capetown.
You will find plenty of targets there , but strong air patrols as well.

You may want to look on the opspin map what other players contributed as contact reports. Thing is not many players go that far south.
