It does sometimes happen that you can end up by Africa though not sure why
This is usually caused by installing mods mid-career (not to be confused with mid-patrol).

If the base you have docked at no longer exists, or has even been moved just a small amount, SH3 will send you to the west coast of Africa - or to be more specific, to 0 degrees lat, 0 degrees long.

I would summise that the reason for this is because SH3 can't reconcile the lat/long/heading values in your save game file (Careers_0.cfg) to a base in the LND file. No match = no "home".
