The way I save my career

I give a sequence number to my saves with base/patrol nr/save nr. For instance Wil201 would be save nr 1 during 2nd patrol out of Wilhelmshaven. As a patrol takes me an average of 2 weeks real time, I save quite often. I never re-save on top of a previous save (overwriting) as I remember having one time a problem in the past. Never had a problem saving submerged or near other units. Only no save near base because of the impact on Harbor Traffic AI boats.
I only keep the 2 last saves and regularly delete the rest directly in My Documents/SH3/data/cfg/Careers/"YourKaptname"/0 folder ( 9 files + Crew_config file for each save).

I constantly overwrite previous saves and have had no problems doing this. In my career there are just two names for my saved game "Surfaced" or "Submerged" depending which I was at the time of the save.
