As for advice, I'd say that this is suicide, but I wouldn't say impossible.

You can try the "are you mad" trick and go in flak speed surfaced or the sneaky sneaky submerged trick. Or better yet turn around while you still can, damage your boat on the way home and tell Deonitz that you tried but sustained heavy damage and could continue.

But I really think you should try, I'm itching to hear your story and I hope you make it out alive.

Good Hunting

That's one of the problems. Deck gun is damaged. So plenty of reasons to surface for a longer period...

Well, there's always the time-honored tactic of ramming.
