If you are not sure where to dock to finish your patrol open up in notepad(default location):

mydocuments/sh4/data/cfg/savegames/<savegame folder>/careertrack.upc

search the text for CSS_BaseChange

the LAST OCCURANCE of this text will be the base that you can dock at and look something like this:

[CareerTrack 1.CareerStatusSave 29]
ID=ID
Reason=CSS_BaseChange
NameDisplayable=
CurrentDate=1942-04-24 00:00:00
BaseIDLink=Brisbane

So in this case my base will be Brisbane and i would be allowed to end my patrol there.

Hope this help some folks out; cause it sure drove me nuts.

Thanks. My S boat out of Manila had an unannounced base change. I first went to Melborne, then to Pearl, before finally landing in Brisbane
