Some time ago I asked Ducimus (TMO creator) about what I thought was excessive range for the S boats. It's been a while, but he responded with details about the S boat engine(s) and said their range was about 17K miles as I recall.

The range on the S-18s would have been 5000nm (9,000km) and about 8000nm (15,000km) on later versions of the S-Class.

As of 1939:

S-18: 8950 nautical miles at 9.5 knots
S-42: 10,000 nautical miles at 8.1 knots
