I should point out that the Hague convoy site, while detailed, follows a rule that losses stated only reflect those that were in convoy at the time. Those vessels that were sunk or damaged but had "bolted" or "romped" out of the convoy would not be counted. As indicated elsewhere in this thread, the convoy had been scattered by E-boats and there would be the strong temptation for vessels to dash into nearby port. This would easily account for the Hague site listing only one of the losses.
