Overall, pretty good article, although some minor issues are present.
Could this sentence be expanded upon: "During a short service career marred by repeated engine breakdowns, U-41 sank one ship of 4,604 GRT."?
I changed the {{
GRT}} template to have the full wording rather than just the wikilinked abbreviation. Without going into too much detail in the lead, what more should this say? —

Perhaps change "After these steps alleviated their most urgent needs," to something along the lines of "Once these steps had alleviated their most urgent needs."
"Although there is no specific notation of a range for U-41 in Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships" Why would that have any bearing on knowing its range?
It's a non-OR-ish way to give an estimate for the range. In all likelihood, the range for this submarine was the same as the German type upon which it is based. But without a specific reference giving the range of this submarine, to say that is making an OR judgement on my part. From past GACs and FACs, this sort of wording has proven to be acceptable. —
