If you've been spotted unaware, by the enemy, prior to submerging for the day, you're essentially waiting to be found by the forces that have been dispatched to locate you. Only submerge for ambush or evasion. Don't sit and wait to be found by the enemy.
Wait until you see the dive times of a S-Boat in TMO anyway, you'll wanna stay dived all day....cuz it took half the day to get dived..

Course if you stay down, it then takes two days to charge the batteries.
