No anchor upon returning to base? a work around.

[SteamWake]

So your supposed to get an anchor icon upon approching a base / pen.

The problem is the anchor doesent always appear.

You have two options... manually sail the boat into the pen, while fun is time consuming and after the third time gets repetative. Not to mention its easy to ram your boat into the lee end of the pin denting her nose.

Or.... make a save game close to the pen, exit, load the save game, poof the anchor appears.

Sorry about that morale but hey your in port !
