If push comes to shove I would rather have the free movement in the tower rather than the realistic bino view, but its clear that it is possible to have both, so my quetsion is how do I edit the dat file to allow it?
Open up the cameras.dat file with S3d and look for
Code:
Node- _Dummy_Cam_Binocular
Select CameraParams, and then Properties. Now, on the right side window, select
ClipDistance. Setting in between 0.1 and 0.5 (don't remember the value exactly) will give you a realistic binoculars view, where the obstacles on your boat obscure your vision.

ETA: Just to clarify, it's the cameras.dat file of this mod that you'll need to modify, to keep the free movement option still available.
