I had the same problem with my old analog monitor. At night I couldnt even see my crew on deck. While this may be realistic, it sux from a gameplay point of view. This is not a problem inherent to any of the supermods. Its an individual monitor problem. I got a new 20in LCD and I can see great now

The big issue is that the game has no way to adjust gamma settings. You either need to adjust your brightness settings on the monitor or adhust the gamma/brightness through your video card.

It sux cause if you have a dark monitor then you need to lighten up everything to play SH3 but that makes it to light for everything else. So you always gotta be screwing with you settings.

I tried the light/dark sky mods but with my old monitor it still didnt remedy the problem. But, like I said, my old monitor was analog and about 6 years old. They tend to darken with age.
