You need to be at a dead stop or almost and very close to shore (as mentioned previously).

One thing you should be aware of. Once the dinghy is in the water you might hear a horrendously loud crashing/grinding noise as if you've collided with something. Don't panic. It's just the dinghy bumping into your sub. For some inexplicable reason the devs completely missed the fact that they used the same sound effect for the rubber dinghy bumping into you as the sound effect used for ship collisions. There is no seperate sound effect for the rubber dinghy so if you change the collision wave file to something more suitable then your ship collisions will end up with THAT file instead.

For all the praise heaped on the devs this simple little thing is something I'll never forgive them for. Relatively easy to fix and yet numerous patches later no joy.
