Its because you have docked at a port where no flotilla is based
The port isnt set up to launch patrols from
Hence you started on the ground

I thought you could seek refuge in any neutral/friendly harbour and start the next patrol from there. There is no flotilla based at Tobruk but that port is okay (you start in a nice berth at the jetty with the bow pointing seawards) - so is there another explanation?

Here I am in Tobruk...:

Now if I could get some rollers under my U-boat I might be able to get it to the water - unfortunately it just rolls from left to right until it expires!

Some ports are lucky enough to be in the right place
Other start in the right place but there is also a ship there :rotfl:
Others you start on land

Do you still have a save at Taranto ?

Lots of holes in the hull!

@Bigboywobbly: I do have a Taranto save - do you want me to post a pic or send the file?

The positioning issue makes me think I have been relatively lucky in the past.
