The problem is the dirty created ClimateZones.tga in this mod, the CTD's with this mod also occur elsewhere on the map.

example of the error:

vanilla SH5:

the whole northsea has the RGB color value 40,0,0
based on the vanilla climatezones.cfg this gives the complete region the
Northern Climate

Code:
[Climate Zones]
DefaultClimateZone=0
Color00=PolarClimateNorthern
Color40=TemperateClimateNorthern
Color80=TropicalClimateNorthern
Color120=TropicalClimateSouthern
Color160=TemperateClimateSouthern
Color200=PolarClimateSouthern
this mod:

the values are not constant, especially near the coast, here we have no more constant red values, it varies e.g. 60, 62, 40, 41, 42, 43 for red.
Now if your sub moves from a region of 60 into a region of 42, the game engine can't find the correspond Color42 climate zone because it don't exist in this mod

Code:
[Climate Zones]
DefaultClimateZone=0
Color00=PolarClimateNorthern
Color40=Polar_AClimateNorthern
Color60=TemperateClimateNorthern
Color80=TropicalClimateNorthern
Color100=Tropical_AClimateNorthern
Color120=TropicalClimateSouthern
Color160=TemperateClimateSouthern
Color200=Polar_AClimateSouthern
A similar problem, the Mediterranean in this mod

vanilla SH5:

the whole Mediterranean has a red value of 40 which gives this region
the Northern Climate

Code:
[Climate Zones]
DefaultClimateZone=0
Color00=PolarClimateNorthern
Color40=TemperateClimateNorthern
Color80=TropicalClimateNorthern
Color120=TropicalClimateSouthern
Color160=TemperateClimateSouthern
Color200=PolarClimateSouthern
this mod:

the Mediterranean is still at red value 40 but this mod changes the
climatezones.cfg and the whole Mediterranean becomes the "Polar_AClimateNorthern" climate -> snow and ice at the beaches in Northern Africa

Code:
 [Climate Zones]
DefaultClimateZone=0
Color00=PolarClimateNorthern
Color40=Polar_AClimateNorthern
Color60=TemperateClimateNorthern
Color80=TropicalClimateNorthern
Color100=Tropical_AClimateNorthern
Color120=TropicalClimateSouthern
Color160=TemperateClimateSouthern
Color200=Polar_AClimateSouthern
