Advice on Convoy attack needed

Hi guys,

I know I have been playing a month, but I am currently faced with a difficult situation. I was tailing a convoy out of Giberalter hanging back waiting till night to fall. So I waited and waited and waited, avoided getting caught, night has come.

So I was all set, saved my game ready to begin my attack. There is only one problem. I am coming at the convoy from its 180 and I am already inside the escort screen.

So as I chase up to get ahead of the convoy at ahead flank I always everytime seem to get surprised by this corvette. The conditions are, clouds none, fog light, winds 5 meters p second.

What would you advise me to do to get my boat into attack position which would minimise my risk of getting detected, currently I tried running pararell to the convoy so, should I go outside the escort screen give the convoy a wide berth and then charge back in on the front?

Any advice is appreciated. I could ask my older brother, but, I want to get by on my own steam. And develop my own tactics.
