The best fix is to get SH3 Commander, as you can change the close to land max time compression very easily with that and loads of other things too.
Otherwise change the value of

[TIME COMPRESSION]
TimeStop=0
RealTime=1
LandProximity=THIS

within main.cfg using Notepad. It is in SHIII\data\cfg

What is the Kiel canal and where do I find this magical plot of sea?

You won't. It's not a sea. It's a (RL) canal in land. In the northern part of Germany infact. From Kiel to the waterway passing through Hamburg. It cuts off the way around Denmark through the Skagerak.

Hard as it is to believe they left the Canal out of the stock game. First there was a mod that put the Canal in, then there was a mod that put in trees and towns. The main supermods all have the Canal. GWX has bridges. LSH3 has the real bridges. The St Naz Schleuse mod puts in the locks at each end of the canal, plus working gates on the locks. Awesome stuff!
