Default LSH3 Howto:

Are you using the LSH3 super mod? If you are read carefully the instructions. You can specify to begin missions at sea which means away from port.
To leave port without doing that you need to start your mission, immediately save the mission. [Saves time when you wreck the boat.]
Take a tour of the port at about 3-4 knots, learn the layout. I used the external camera a lot.
At night is the easiest time to see the locks [the lights] that allow access to the sea.
You must time your entry into & exit from the lock carefully or the submarine will get damaged.
Personally I don't much like the U-boats at the beginning of the game and I didn't actually hunt the enemy. My focus was on completing the patrol so I could advance the game.

I want to stress this because you will not enjoy the LSH3 MOD otherwise. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS several times, print them out and keep them close. SH3 is no longer being supported except by the crew at LSH3.

If you do not understand something go to their website and request support. They are serious about helping the community and they will give you the assistance you need, but it might require some dedication on your part to get through a problem. A simple problem could take days to cure because of time zones and whatnot.
