I must be doing something wrong, there are little to no cargo in this area either.

I am patrolling the funnel north of Loch Ewe, there is supposed to be a route there that leads to Reykjavík. I found a lone light merchant and sunk it with joy, but other than that... there is a dozen destroyers, a few patrol crafts and a brazilion trawlers.

Like I said, I usually travel about 40Km, do a 50m dive, go slow and listen manually to the hydrophone. I usually do about 3 revolutions, marking all the targets I can find. Surface, do another surface run and so on. Do I need to stay longer?Go deeper?

I have resorted to hunting lone destroyers (It's still early Feb 40, so I know this won't last long). While it certainly is interesting WRT the fear factor, it feels quite gamey and I know I won't be doing this for long.

PS: I resorted to the external cam, had a look at Loch Ewe, it's empty.
