Just lost my best days hunting

I Just started a new career with GWX 2.1 and was on 4th gamesave of 1st patrol, when i bumped into a convoy in heavy fog, rain and rough seas, and hit HMS Nelson with one torp which sunk it. Next day i found the Hood and sunk that with one torpedo as well.
This is by far the best i've ever done with 2 torpedos and will likely never be repeated.
Trouble is i saved the game later, then exited SH3 and was greeted with "SH3 has encountered a problem and needs to close" etc.
I've just tried to reload my last save 3 times but get the same error message each time after the " not so long ago" screen.
I've looked in the save game folder in My Documents and all the files seem to be intact in relation to the previous saves.

Have i lost it, or is there a way to rescue my best days work?
