You are entirely correct that it is still, even at 60 degrees, a bit of a fish-eye view, but a realistic view of the kind you describe would (a) be different for every user and (b) prevent you from seeing much of the horizon when you're on deck.
My screen is small and I sit back from it. If I adjusted it to a "realistic" view angle, it'd be like permanently looking through the binocs!

Yeah I realize it's a compromise to achieve some kind of peripheral vision. I have also noted that it says 60 degrees in the dat file. But when I try it in game it looks more like 80 degrees to me, I have to turn 4.5 screens to fill 360 degrees.
