It happens when you are sailing in high seas - the waves overflow some parts of the deck, hence you get "submerged" icon in the upper right, and the "Unable to calculate ..." message.
As a side note, getting a celestial fix in storm is almost impossible, but in game you can't do it in not that high sea states, but wit perfect visibilty (and I assume one would take the measurments from the conning tower, not from the deck). So to get a celestial fix right now you need pretty calm weather and uninterrupted by waves sailing, for about 30 minutes. Other than that you can get even a few days (with but luck) od dead reconning.
