"Ship spotted" text missing

Sometimes there is a delay between the "schiff gesichtet" and the report of range and bearing, occasionally long enough to be annoying. I don't know why that is. Eventually I always get the full report, though, either by waiting or clicking.

I get that too, and it's annoying.
If it doesn't come with a bearing and range, I'd rather not hear it.

Can a sound file be removed to shut them up, without compromising the boats safety?
(IE, so only the WO is audable, and not the watch crew).
If so, it would also fix the Continuous Ship Spotted/Sighted, permanently.

Had a similar problem. I edited the menu.txt file as suggested in the second reply but somehow it kept reverting! Solved it by disabling all mods and enabling them one by one.

I noticed that the ACM reloaded for OHC mod made the change in the txt file. I reinstalled that mod but this time I added the line in the menu file of the mod itself. This resolved the issue for me.
