There is a convoy route pull down map in the top left corner with the main convoy routes - you will still have to hunt its not like a bus route where just sit and wait for one to come along but it gives you an idea of where they are
By saying "pull down the map in the top left" are you referring to that dark tab at the top left? If you are, then I'm sorry, I didn't know. Thanks.
There are a few pull down sheets in different screens - right in the top left corner
A flag chart in periscope\uzo
A convoy map\speed charts and minefield maps in the Navmap view

Place you mouse on them and drag into view
Thanks a bunch. That certainly helps.

Default I can't find all that you said

I looked at the top left corner and found a watch, a sheet with speeds on it and that's all.

It's a bit difficult to find, depending perhaps on your resolution.

Right to left there should be 4 tabs: the first two dealing with speeds/distances/times, the third friendly minefields and subnets, and all the way at the far left is a tab that shows a full map with convoy routes and enemy aerial coverage. That last one might not be readily apparant, just hunt around at that corner and you should find it.
