When you play in '43 and wearly '44, a skipper can run himself ragged around Tulagi. The "slot" between the Solomons from Tulagi running NW towards Rabaul is usually full of tankers....Large Modern Tankers at that. Just stay between the islands and have fun.

My second patrol out of Brisbane I headed there on the way to the area NE of the Bismarck Sea and got about 60K tons of kills before having to refit at Tulagi and heading up the same slot again. Had to go BACK to Tulagi again before reaching the patrol area...another refit. Way too many easy pickings in the Solomons and the TF destroyers cruise right over you when you meet them.
