With a clear atmosphere, I have spotted masts of ships 12 nm away at an eye height slightly lower than standing on the deck of a U-boat. The eye height on the bridge would be aproximately 2 meters higher.

most uboat attacks where at night so the visuals distances would be much reduced , compared to daylight.

captains took advantage of moonlit nights, conducting from surface attacks and calm seas states was the ideal conditions, and in hope of finding a big convoy on nights like these.

would love to see screens with nice night conditions ..moonlit waters .

Seeing only the masts in the distance, ala SH1, would be a welcome addition.
