Step back from the UZO and look down. If the hatch is closed click it to open it, then move forward towards the hatch to enter the sub and allow diving.
There are two cases where this won't work. First is if you're too low in the water. If you're under 7m the hatch won't open. Press "R" to surface and the hatch should be selectable once you're surfaced. Rough seas can do this too, if you try the hatch while you're "washed" it won't open, wait for a low wave and try it again.
Secondly is if you're just plain bugged. In this case try Shift-U. You might actually be INSIDE the sub, but not see that you are. Shift-U will reset your avatar to where you should be, bridge surfaced or control room submerged.
As for the range, if you have map contacts on you can judge from that. If they are off, you'll need to eye it or use the standimeter for it.
