Dillema at Curacao

Yesterday I reached Curacao in my XXI. It's a great deepwater port and I found it completely unguarded, except for some shore batteries. There were 4 tankers in port and I was able to approach at periscope depth. Since all the tankers were in berths, I could only shoot at them head on. I selected a T2 tanker for my first victim, set my eels on Magnetic and 1/2 meter under the keel. I fired two eels this way, both exploded under the tanker, but it was not damaged. I quickly made my way out of the harbor and back to the passage (chokepoint) where I like to hunt.

Anyone else experience this??
