Default Exmouth Gulf and Harbor Tugs

Two questions. First, for you Fremont patrollers, how often do you stop at Exmouth Gulf to refit? IRL it was not a good location, and there was a tender there for only a month or so in '43. However, there was fuelling capacity that seems to have seen use for much of the war. As the current refit option does more than just add fuel, I'm torn about how to model it. If it's something you rely on to reach your patrol area, then I don't want to mess it up.

Second, was it common practice for tugs to escort subs out of harbors? I expect it happened at Fremantle and Brisbane, where the tenders etc were in rivers, but perhaps less common in more open harbors like Midway amd Milne Bay.
