Lookouts not seeing anything?

So for the 5th time ive started a new campain trying out some of the mods that people have made including the morale mod.
So anyhow I am patrolling the coastal waters. My guys are calling out aircraft every so often which I make sure are flying away, then go back to map view and compress time again. All of a sudden I am pulled out of the map screen and there is a destroyer sitting about 100 yards off my port side running along side of me.
As you can imagine i am pretty much instantly dead and done.

Anyone else seeing this? I thought it may be a morale issue since they seem to be completely retarded when their morale is low but even after installing the mod where they are always in a good mood I am still getting this.

I can't play the game at 1X for the obvious reason I cannot sit here for weeks on end. But everytime I try to accelerate time I die before I have a chance to do anything.

The seem to see small aircraft perfectly fine, but huge ships in calm seas, and sunny weather they are completely blind.
Anyone else have this problem?
Know of a fix?

Thanks
