Harbor raids

I'm playing with TMO 2.0, RSRD. I would like to know if anyone have tried to do a harbor aid, i.e., attacking anchored ships on light protected harbors. I tried to do that on Wake Island, got inside the harbor and almost got to fire at the ships. I got detected because I made a stupid mistake at the harbor aproach, then I got to load the game and try something else.

I know that some very brave captains went as far as bombarding enemy ports with the deck gun, but I believe that was very rare. Also, I believe that most of japanese harbors, be it at home or away would have some kind of anti-submarine device like mines or underwater nets. So, going to an enemy harbor and just firing torpedoes at the stationed ships seem to far fetched. Does anyone know if that was possible or not?
