What flotilla and port are you sailing out of? I'll try and replicate the problem.

Started a new career out of Bordeaux in 43 with a IXD2
Fastest I could get was 19 kts but only briefly and now and again
18 kts was the average for top speed

New career out of Lorient in a IXD2 - 18 knots top speed.

@thehiredgun - we're trying to repeat your problem but haven't been able to so far. Hang in there and we'll try and work out why it's happening.

Jumped out of patrol & went back to lorient because of low on fuel ! I had set speed to 10 knots & you'd think i was driving a Cadilac as between base & middle of channel used 1/3 fuel

Hiredgun,

I can tell you definitively that if your U-boat is doing 38 knots... it has nothing to do with GWX itself, mate.

Well i cannot tell you what caused the problem but i can tell you what i did to solve it ! Checked Basic configerations {speed boost) & changed it from 1.5 to 1.1 & speed is back to normal .Only change was navigator says maximum distance at 10 knots is 38000 not the usual 50000 ! I can live with that ! Thanks for looking in to this & i have no idea of why this happened !

Was that a fresh install ?
Were you using SH3commander on your last install and if so did you roll back commander before unistalling SH3 ??
