Thanks, meduza!
Thats true...but to ride that harbour i set course in direction West to East directy to the port entrance there is four trawlers patroling the area and one DD (in 1941) keep PD and SR and set the speed to one knot, its very important to remain undetected untill you reach the harbour entrance (at this point its possible to see enemy ships in the bay and inside the harbour). Take a lot of torpedos as possible, because that it was my bigest problem (sailing with a U-boat VII B and in the away i sunk three ships, heavy seas must of the time, impossible to use the deck gun) if not...i was able to destroy all the enemy ships there: about six small merchants, one modern tanker, one medium merchant...this ones i can remember! :hmm:
