Use google-maps, openSea or any other chart plotter (SeaClear II etc) and the Naval grid calculator ( http://grid.nylle.de/find ).
The chart is Euroafri.geo.

Edit:
Its clearly evident you use a route with water depth < 120m (blue area). Which can be a problem if your boat is under attack from a english massive hunter-group.

A very good read!



P.S. Just for informational purposes, an undamaged type VII u-boat can go down to 210-220M with no problem.
