it's 25 oct.1939 and i just rearmed and refueled at las palmas.i managed to sink 9 ships[7 brit and 2 french]for 36.689 tonnes all the way from east of england to bf16 to a spot 150 m.west of gibralter.but i was lucky the conditions were appalling high sea's,heavy rain and lost at least 4 ships because of conditions.so i have decided to journey to the carr.maybe conditions will,should be better.what area's are the most fruitfull at this time of the war?

U dont have enough fuel for that in a type II or VII unless u disable limited fuel in reality settings.

Plus a lot of Caribbean traffic (i.e., US traffic) will be neutral in 1939. The mouth of Gibraltar's a good choice at that point.

Take station 200/250 km west of Gibraltar

West of gibraltar, neat Cape Sao Vicente is a good hunting spot.
You have already burned too much fuel to make it to the Carib in any sub.
