The minefield gaps are marked on the in game map. Should consult the documentation comes with game as there is a real document showing the location of minefields, the position and gaps are based on real world locations circa 1941-42. to see where the mines are, you've got to watch it pretty carefully, depending on your PC avoid TC use or anything about x8-10 near the minefields.
I was using up to 1500 before, this time I did not go past 1000 and if near any land 512. this time I stopped 2 map squares away from port and saved then came in at 512, when I got near dropped it to 32. I think you are right, that my blubber for brains was running into mines. I knew where the gap was and would plot it, but I did not think to zoom in to make sure the plot was in the gap vs just to the left and into the mines. And a couple times were straight throughs because I was testing for crashes.

Successful crash free patrol... finally :p
