Hi Alfredo
You can run a parallel course with the contact and use your surface speed to get in front of it and then close on it.
As soon as you get the bearing from 'smoke on the horizon' showing in the message box, ask the WO to give you the range.
Go to decks awash after the WO has given you the range.
Plot this on the map and move your boat accordingly.
Depending how your game is set up when you lock the target the maps can show you the true bearing and contacts course.
U-boats sit very low in the water and are quite small compared to merchants so are more difficult to be seen.
