Fellow Kaleuns, what would you do to lose the escorts?

Since you managed to survive 3 escorts for 12 hours now, I guess you know the usual strategies to escape depth charges.
IMHO there is not much you can do. Right now, you are the prey, not the hunter. Forget about the convoy, think about it again after you escaped the escorts. Now it's only about surviving the situation.
It doesn't matter which direction relative to the convoy you go. With your 1-3 knots speed, it's at the end of the world right now.
The situation of a real U-Boat in 1943 is simulated very well here. Being depth charged for 24 hours and more was normal and all the boat could hope for was to survive.
With the escorts most probably having radar, surfacing fast at night and trying to escape in the darkness with max speed is no option, too.
Try to survive until they give up, and consider yourself lucky and heroic if you do. The 50 people under your command will certainly feel that way about you. Once you have surfaced under safe conditions, maximize the crew for damage repair and try to reload torps while chasing the convoy at full speed. The escorts will go full speed to reach the convoy too, but corvettes might be outrunned.
Good luck, captain.
