Weak spots

I hit a yamato couple days ago.. Did the same testing, reloading from a good starting point. Best score I got was 8 torps and as many as 14 to sink it. Best tactic i found was to aim for engine room which with one or two torps would disable the props on that side. I was aiming about 1/4 ships length past where the shafts entered. This would slow her to about 6 knots giving me an easy run to line up for spreads/aimed on the same side. After 7 or so well placed under turrets or under stacks you get secondary explosions and after that its only one or two more, or so it seemed. Seemed spreads would often require at least 2 tries with 6 fish each maybe missing 2 total. It was fun to try and thats all that matters i guess!
