I even plot on the screen with a traffic collision template and dry erase markers!

playing with the cams off is very slow play when evading, but fun being trapped and have no clue what's going on above you. You learn to trust your ears.

There is a certain psychological tension involved. I can see why skippers and crews tried to avoid those situations.

Diversion tactics - send a torpedo via stern tube towards a group of escorts and attack forward targets in the ensuing confusion....
