No I don't think so. I had the same problem just miles away from the british coast. There is nothing you can do except contacting BdU, and they seem to ignore you

Just as easy to hit the 'Esc' key and teleport home.

Ok, that might sound a little bit odd, but can't one turn off the auto navigation (deleting all waypoints), hope for bad weather, go slow speed ahead/ or back and wait for the weather/wind turning you slowly off course until you have the exact heading to friendly waters? Once on course turn on autonavigation again to head straight to a waypoint set along this line?

Will not bring you to the pier and may be in vain anyway, but if "Never give up!" is your motto, I'd give it a try in this situation.

Cheers,

You could ask Bernard to drag his feet in the water on one side of the boat.
