Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you weren't a veteran. Just make sure that you are not aiming at different points on the vessel, and then using the Offset. Lock onto the center and use the offset from that point.

Ok, but do you have to resend the bearing to the TDC after each shot/angle change??

Not that I'm aware of. Hopefully you've already completed that part. You're just adjusting the offset based upon the last bearing you've set before firing. I don't use manual targeting so I may be incorrect on this. Hopefully, someone will correct me (soon) if I'm wrong.

Nope, no need to. Just to make sure, are you using auto- or manual targeting?
