Has anyone else had a problem with Motor Launches being underwater past their gunwales?

I'm using GWX 2.0 with only one non-GWX mod, "A Green Atlantic GWX 2 16k," which I doubt should be affecting waterlines.

I wrote it off as an isolated incident the first time I saw it, but every motor launch I've seen since has been the same way; almost entirely underwater.

This is (mildly) problematic, because they're so low it's almost impossible to depress the deck gun on my IXB enough to hit the damned things---leaving their crews (presumably in hip waders) free to radio the RAF unimpeded.

Oh---lest anyone should get the wrong impression, I was not about to fire a stern eel at an impossible angle, as the screenie might imply: I was closing to ram.

I figured with his being mostly underwater already, it wouldn't take much to swamp him.
