a possible bug?

On my last patrol I got orders (at the start of the patrol) that said my new base was St Nazaire (from Trondheim) which was no problem. I did my patrol and headed there but got hammered pretty badly (Jan/Feb '45) I have a schnorkel but found after the last run in with the escorts I was reduced to 4 knots on the surface at ahead 1/3. However, submerged with the use of snorkel I could make 6 knots.

I docked at St. Nazaire (and because I have dial up I've not yet got GWX3 and am only using GWX2.0) I spent the mandatory 30 days in port. I sailed again in a repaired ship but the problem persists. Don't know if it makes a difference but my boat is a IXB and she's on her 7th patrol. I also use SH3 Commander.

This close to the end of the war (I started in mid-43) I'll live with it - unless there is an easy, no mess, no fuss solution - and see out the patrol if only for two reasons:
a) never been at see in May '45 and want to see what happens - DON'T ANYONE SPOIL IT!!!!!

b) it's six weeks game time till I get to go home to the proverbial wife and three kids and I want to see if I can get there without loosing the current game
