Meh the complaints of "not realistic" would soon follow. Espically when the outside water is so well modeled.

"Why doesent the water slosh and splash around ? How come theres no reflections ? How come the water doesent short out the electronics ?" etc etc etc.

As to the sub "repair" at refit. As I understand it they can slap a band aid on the fixes but in order to get truely "repaired" you have to dock at your home port.
