And how the automatic anchor works. it shouldn't at all. It can give you a false impression of your clearance.
Devs why the automated mechanics? When others are so arbitrarily difficult?
Some of the critical gameplay like fighting you reduced to an automated aimbot, not needing any skill to actually aim, but then ramp up the difficulty on the mundane gameplay. I think the devs are doing this backward. more
Running aground on sand seems to be fine but any rocks will damage you. If I run aground on sand I just lower my sails to about 20% and turn the ship until the front turns into deeper water and it slowly drives off the sand. Reversing out also works. Hitting anything with full sails is asking for trouble here
So one thing at a time. Will get the throttle unstuck and then deal with the dead lights. [links]
When you are in 1' of water, you can get out of the boat. Then the boat floats higher in the water and can come off the bottom. So you can push it to a safe depth and restart. here
I will restate @Julian more strongly: the nav lights are definitely not connected to the engine or it running. Separate problem there. You should be able to have anchor light or nav lights with or without the engine running. Did you check them before you went out? Have they worked before? here
Sooo, we got stuck in shallow water. Since I am a complete rookie, tried rapid forward/reverse only to get the throttle stuck in reverse and stopped the engine. Now the throttle is firmly in reverse and I can’t restart the engine.

The boating and nautical area of word play has a strong history, perhaps mostly because of the tradition of naming a boat or ship with a pun. On top of this, there are so many sub-categories of boat word play: sailing puns, anchor puns, rowing puns, naval puns, ship puns, fishing puns, and it even has a decent overlap with the infamous ocean puns category – one of the more popular categories of puns. So in this Punpedia entry we’ve done our best to create and collect as many examples of maritime word play as we could. If you’ve got a nautical pun that we’re missing, please submit it in the comments at the bottom of this page!

How horrible. I’m sure he has ptsd from that event. Poor guy, glad he survived though. Wonder how? What did he eat/drink? [links]
The ocean is deep, vast, and scary. Who knows what lurks in those crystal marine waters? In fact, much remains to be learned from exploring the mysteries of the deep since more than eighty percent of it remains unmapped, unobserved, and unexplored.
When I used to surf I spent a good deal of time underwater - whether intentional, or not. One day, I went out in surf that was absolutely massive (for me). It was 10 foot solid all day. Bigger sets. Serious stuff. And it was a very dark, overcast Winter's day. And raining. You couldn't see s**t above the water, let alone below. At this place, the bigger it gets, the further out on the rock shelf it breaks. So I was at least 200 m from shore when out of the gloom towered an absolutely massive set. Enormous. As big as I'd ever encountered. There were only a handful of other blokes out there. The wave was mine. At this point I wasn't scared at all. No, I wanted to get the biggest wave of my life. So I tried. I got onto it but I just f**ked up the position of my feet, ever so slightly. No chance of pulling out, so I tried to go with it. And that is when it happened. The scariest f**king water-based experience I ever had. I fell off and this thing just took me to town. It lifted me all the way up and over the falls - I thought I was OK, but no, it was just beginning. It just kept pushing me down. Further and further. My ears hurt (badly), it was completely dark, cold (even in a wetsuit) - I came to rest on what seemed to be a very large, smooth rock (I could feel it with my fingers whilst I was pinned firmly to it). I was held there for what seemed like an eternity. Maybe 10 seconds. But then I could sense with my feet a ferocious current that seemed to stop at the edge of the rock - it was trying to pull me over the ledge and DOWN. I could hear it. At this point I was panicking. Seriously. I can't quite remember how I escaped. I have rarely been that scared in all my life. I made it to the surface. I really thought I was going to pass out. I can't remember much more but I must have paddled in so f**king fast other people noticed. They came to see what was the matter. I just sat on the beach. I could not even talk. I'm getting the f**king heebie jeebies even reading my own recollection. [links]
Imagine that the lowest point on Earth, the Challenger Deep section of the Mariana Trench in the Pacific Ocean, sits at a staggering 36,000 feet below sea level. The depth could engulf the summit of Mount Everest plus 7,000 feet added on top of it.It’s also the home of some of the most frightening-looking deep sea creatures like frilled sharks and giant tube worms.
An old WW2 ammunition ship off the south cost of england was full off brass topped shells. Most had been taken by divers over the years and it was now very rare to see them, apart from a pile in one corner of the ship.
This pile of shiny brass metals was miraculous untouched and remarkably clean after spending years underwater and you only found out why if you swam near then. here
