The game thinks that you're submerged and that's it...Nothing we can do abouth it...These small annoyances are common for all Silent Hunters so I'm a bit surprised that you're unfamiliar with them...
Well, in SH3, I think you can set your depth to like 7 meters before you are forced below deck. But until you are forced below deck all bridge functions work fine as far as I recall.

Its mods . If you go to the Silent hunter 5\data\Applications\OptionsFileEditorViewer there is a section there to alter the decks awash height . I have never mucked around with it but you might find a happy medium where you can use binos but still be lower in the water than surfaced .
So is the issue that the mod is giving us a decks-awash depth that is actually underwater per the game engine?

I guess I could test this by manually setting a depth as I did in SH3 and seeing at what depth your men are forced below deck and/or bridge functions quit working.
