endurance
The most fuel efficient speed is probably 6 or 7 Knts not 9. To check which speed is best, after you are out of port set the speed at various values and ask the navigator what range you have at that speed. Make sure you are not in recharge mode when you do this. You will have enough fuel for two weeks.

Alright. I'll try that. I'm used to the most fuel-efficient speed being 9 knots, but that's in a VII or IX boat. Thank you.

Ahead 1/3. Runs about 6 knots. Three to four weeks travel time, if you go Ahead Slow while in the patrol zone. Probably they didn't have that much food.

2) Some of us strive for realism, even if it's not in the game. I found that with proper fuel management I could keep a type VIIb out for 85 days. Hardly realistic, and I try not to do it anymore. I try to imagine I'm really the captain, with all his problems.
