I don't know why the lines are broken, but it looks to me like whole bucket load of sound contacts to me.

It looks like you have at least 17 sound contacts to me.

Looks like time to go hunting.

Go Get 'em Clayp, GOOD LUCK!!!

There is a big convoy to my left West I guess. Lots of merchant and war ships. I really dont have any idea how to intercept them. I guess I will just try and hit and run from the side...I thought this map was supposed to help you set up on a convoy?

Use the Navigation map.

Take your pencil tool, and place a mark at the end of the contact lines. (not all of the lines, just one or two of em).

Fast foward the game a couple mins.

Place a second mark down at the ends of the lines again. So now you should have two marks per contact that you were tracking. Try and remember which line had which marks.

For each contact you made a mark for, connect its two marks with a straight line.

You now know there course.
