Targeting cargo ships?!

Hi, first I apologize for the newbie question.

I just found silent hunter 3, and have it installed, and thoroughly enjoying it. My first sub game back in the day was GATO (if you're old enough to remember that).

Anyways, I'm enjoying learning the manual targeting of torpedos, and the link in the FAQ for manual targeting tutorial is 404.

How do I get the speed of cargo ships if I can't determine their mast height, nor enter it from the identification book?

Also, I'm having a difficult time of determining how to use the UI to get the speed. I get that I can click on the watch icon in the book, but do I need to let it run for 3 minutes and 15 seconds always? Just wondering, thank you.

Again, this is for manual targeting.
