Convoy attacks with MK18s

First off, Merry Christmas to you all!

I've stumbled on a 10 ship convoy with only 2 mine sweepers for escorts (October, 43 Japan/Palau shipping lanes)

I had enough renown in port before the patrol to get a few mk 18s, well after sinking a few ships before hand with mk14s I'm down to 2x mk 14 and 4x 18s in the bow.

I'm OK at hitting multiple targets in a convoy and can do it fairly consistently (manual targeting) using the different speed settings on the mk 14s, but how can I fire at 2 or more targets with torpedoes such as the mk 18 which are all one speed?
