Close-to-shore navigation without GPS position would definitely be a real challenge! Interesting!

Been following the developement on the sideline since Marulken (as much as real life allows anyway) and after reading how the radio direction finder was used for navigation purposes while thinking about how to give the radio man some more game things to play around with (mind you, I don't have the game yet):
Would it be an idea to have any player or all disable and enable in the game setup, the map update on the boat's location while surfaced, so that the radio man can co-work with the nav officer to pinpoint the boat's location on the map? I believe the dir.finder is currently inactive ingame but in the future that could very well change. Anyway, just a thought for added gameplay and co-op between players. Add a few landbased radio stations to tune in to, have the radio operator find the bearings to these stations and give the nav officer what he/she needs to plot their position. Just don't tell Döntiz his men are listening to BBC radio
