Go to

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Submarine

and open up the boat folder of your choice

Open the cfg file

Look for
[Properties]
PeriscopeDepth=12;meters
SnorkelDepth=12;meters
CrashDepth=70;meters
MaxDepth=200;meters
SurfaceDepth=8;meters

Change the SurfaceDepth to around 8 m as above and save

That means your boat can run at 8m depth and still be classed as surfaced

It should do as you will leave a smaller " footprint "
That is you will show less of a visible surface area and a lower silhouette

IIRC, Hemisent did extensive testing and found out that deck awash do indeed have an effect in detection ranges by the AI.
