Default first Port Scouting venture did not go well

First time I was off Africa and after finally finding Brest since I was told to return there I thought I would do a little duty free shopping in Freeport since I had not seen anything the whole trip. Saw the shallow water on the map and was going at slow and periscope depth as I went over it. Checked death under and was informed I had 39 so I upped to one third since I didn't want to be caught in shallow water at day break. Promptly ran aground and when I checked crew to set up repairs 90% were dead!!!!! Moved everyone I could to repairs and as soon as everything said repaired the dead ship pop up showed


Why does the maps not give a hint of the depth of the water, I have never seen a chart that doesn't have it?
