That's similar to my experiences with warships. I haven't fought with warships voluntarily, though, but only after I have surfaced after blowing ballast after some major damage and for the hell of it tried fighting on the surface with a badly damaged boat. The end result was the destruction of the boat after a few shots.

(Once I did deck gun an armed trawler, just to see what would happen, but the trawler just kept going on in a straight line and I could sneak behind it's stern and shoot at it in impunity. After awhile I stopped and felt a little bit embarrassed, stopped and let the trawler sail away I'll never fight a warship again - it just feels too unrealistic.)
