What I found was that the main BB fleet wasn't the one to sink the boss flagship, but rather the night torpedo attack of the 2nd DD/CL/CA fleet. I recommend using high luck DD's for that fleet since the torpedo cut ins seem to be the important factor. (I sortied 4 straight days as well after getting boss flagship to 1 hp, so RNG gods can be capricious regardless).

Also, using 3xCVL support missions helps reduce the other ships in the fleet, so your torpedos can concentrate on the boss flagship.

I definitely feel for you. I experienced the same frustrations when I ran out of buckets and resources during the attempts as well, but with perseverance I finally pulled through to see U-511. I wish you luck and RNG fortune!
