Get a bigger boat with more fuel and fish. Use the shipping lane map on the main F5 map. There out there man, trust me

That's why they made hydrophones.
When I was a young lad, I ask my father, "how does one get a girl?"
He said, "go where the girls are."
As usual, BBW has said it all.

With a IIA also found quite a few targets hanging around outside of Hartlepool...

Norway it is then - many thanks lads.

Getting a bigger boat has been hampered by my lack of renown due to not finding any ships ...agh.

Have moved up to the heady hights of a IID, though.

My observation is that Englands Eastern Coast is meager from 1940 onwards (but that was back in the stock game). April 1940 makes Norway a good hunting ground. But be prepared: You now may find enemy ships but the torps will suck big time

- torpedo crisis!

IIRC, the IID has enough fuel to make it into the Irish Sea / North Channel and back if you don't make a too large circle around Scotland. Much shipping going on there on the Western side of England.

Cheers,
AndyW
