Dover has been one of my favorite places to raid in the early stages of the war along with Scapa Flow, Hartelpool, Loch Ewe, heck I've even thought about raiding Liverpool but never did. Come to think of it I've even raided Gibraltar and New York!! But keep this in mind port raiding is the easest ways of getting a kill but it is also the most dangerous!

I time it such that I get there with enough sunlight to pull off that maneuver at periscope depth and cruise in while silent running......you need to stay close to the center of the channel or you may run lightly aground. Usually some sort of light coal barge is stationed at the inward side of this channel......anyhow be careful with the scope. Wait until it's dark before you pop it above water once deep along the channel. Next I scoot into scapa proper, line up on my target and shoot a slow spread from 5,000 meters away. I then high-tail it to the western channels, putting some distance between me and the target before it goes boom. I may even surface and run at flank if it's dark enough. The southern western channel is open along it's north side. You can escape out into the Northern Hebrides approaches and the Atlantic from there.
