Sabotaged!

[Salvadoreno]

Well i downloaded the Sabotage mod and used it in my current Wolves at War campaign. I did not quite see any difference until i was just finished attacking my first convoy round June 13 or somewhere around there. Anyway as i sailed to my patrol zone i was attacked by an aircraft too late to dive. I went ahead flank but my boat only went 10knots max speed. Luckily i survived BUT i was wondering if there was any way to fix this? I was pretty sure in the readme it stated "it may be possible to repair at sea" but i dont know how. Well i stayed on patrol despite my difficulties and it never repaired and when i reloaded the problem was still there, and yet another problem arose. My diesel was leaking fuel faster than usual, and at that point i had to cancel my fruitless patrol. Is there anyway for these problems to be fixed? Do i need to put some men at the repair station or but men in the compartment that needs fixing? I never quite understood this part. Im starting a new patrol now and its July, hopefully i dont have problems but if i do i want to know how to fix this.
