When cruising on the surface the enemy always spots me before my conning crew spots them.
I’m often taken by surprise by gunfire and ones I was almost rammed by destroyer which my crew did first see after she fired the first rounds less than 100 meter distance.

I’m now in base at Lorient and the date is February 1942

Is there anything I can do?

I see you are in 1942. By now the enemy is installing radar on their warships. Perhaps sometimes they are seeing you on radar rather than with the Mark I eyeball. Get a radar detector for your boat as soon as you can.
