The problem isn't the gauge, but the game mechanics itself. First, the dive planes don't actually control any of the physics of the boat and are purely for show. Second there's a mechanic in place that forces vessels to increase their sink rate beyond a certain depth until they reach 1450ft where they are removed from the game.
