The one thing you should worry about, is probably ship mass. Right now I have no exact figures, but if boat displacement is too small compared to the displacement of the attacked submarine, game AI will prevent the said boat from sailing right on top of her potential target.
This issue is probably related to collision avoidance routines, and it has been reported for the first time with motor torpedo boats. If memory serves, when they spot an enemy submarine they head for her, but before they can reach a convenient position for depth-charging her, they change course and they start sailing in circles.
