You should be able to make it back: just manually turn off battery recharging. It's the battery icon on the first command card. 60% fuel should allow for a range of about 18.000 km (~10.000nm) for a fleet boat. This is assuming a cruise speed of 10 knots (not 2/3 which is slightly slower than that).

Hi guys!

You were right. My batteries can only be charged to 98% due to "repaired" damage. This leaves the engines in recharge mode, leaving my projected range with 71% diesel in the tanks a mere 3800 km. When shutting down recharge, I can do almost 19000 km.

Thanx for all the help!
