Okhotsk sea? Anyone patrolling there?

Just finished Thunder Below! about the USS Barb and I was fascinated to read about some interesting patrols she had up north in the Okhotsk sea. Some odd meteorological conditions there would cause ships too appear way out of normal visual range, sometimes as far away as 45,000 yards. The commander would notice his men were actually pointing their binoculars below the horizon searching for ships. I know this isn't modelled in SH4 but it would be interesting nonetheless.
