Torpedo Running Depth?

I read the Wiki and did some searches and just wanted some extra clarification.

I had read (C. Blair) that torpedos ran up to 1.5m deeper than their settings so I've been compensating, thinking that it was also true for SHIII. Lately my torpedos have been either too high or too low as I adjust for the differences in targets.

I know heavy weather plays a role, but yesterday's convoy battle was in winds nil, glass seas and the U-124 was having a tough time.

A long-winded way of asking: depth, do we need to compensate for historical accuracy?
