...what would be the average time for the crew of a merchant ship to get into their lifeboats after they've been warned by the U-boat that the ship is going to be sunk? I know the game doesn't model this, but I like to roleplay a bit, so in early war, when air cover is not so threatening, I "stop" the merchant with deck gun shot across the bow and then give them a bit of time to save themselves. So, how much time would they need in real life?
