(All times are zone -1)
1015 hours - Sighted a small merchant vessel escorted by a trawler coming up Venelv Gabet. Started attack. Visibility through the high power periscope was practically nil due to rainstorm and strong wind.

1025 hours - Sighted another small merchant ship similarly escorted and approximately two miles astern of the first.

1037 hours - Sighted a medium seized merchant vessel of about 6000 to 7000 tons escorted by an M-class minesweeper also coming North from Venelv Gabet and again about 2 miles astern of the second ship. All escorts were on the starboard beams of their repective ships. Started attack on the third ship.

1054 hours - In position 62°14'7"N, 05°10'6"E fired 5 torpedoes from a range of 2800 yards. Upon firing Satyr went to 80 feet and retired at high speed.

1056 hours - Heard a heavy underwater explosion. HE of the target ceased.

1058 hours - Heard breaking up noises.

1059 hours - Heard 3 distant underwater explosions. These must be other torpedoes exploding on hitting the shore.

1115 hours - A counter attack of 7 depth charges followed. All were close. Went to 90 feet.

1125 hours - Satyr began to gain depth as she was taking on board water through a small leak through the drain pipe from the stern torpedo tube.

1258 hours - Passed periscope depth. Steadied off at 150 feet with the pump running continuously. It was very difficult to keep depth control and at 1414 hours Satyr again grounded at 235 feet.

1450 hours - As Satyr was bumping on what appeared to be a rocky bottom main ballast was blown to attempt to get into trim again. Satyr however took an angle of 30 degrees bow up and nothing could be done from stopping her to break surface again.

1455 hours - Broke surface for about 30 seconds. Water inside the boat meanwhile had caused damage in the engine room and to the W/T set. Satyr quickly dived again and now got into trim. She retired from the area and given the damage to her the patrol was abandoned and course was set towards Lerwick. (5)

Target was now shifted to the tanker.

0919 hours - In position 62°15'2"N, 05°09'5"E fired a salvo of the 3 remaining torpedoes from 4000 yards. After firing went to 80 feet, altered course and withdrew at high speed for 4 minutes. No explosions were heard at all. No counter attack followed. While Satyr retired from the scene at 80 feet an enemy convoy was heard to pass overhead. This convoy had unfortunately not been sighted due to the bad visibility. (5)
