Leaving your ship anchored with sails down

  • If you leave your ship anchored with the sails down does it create holes? I left my sloop off a small island for only a minute or two with the anchor and sails down. My intention was to get off quick without taking time to raise sails. Next think I know my bow is up in the air and my boat is sinking. Is this new? I was under the impression you could have both down. (I didn't hit anything on my voyage, go through a storm or get shot)

  • As long as you don't run into anything or get hit by lightning in a storm or a sneaky pirate doesn't detonate a barrel on your ship, you won't get any holes with the anchor down.

    They did change some of the sounds related to taking damage or hitting things with your ship, so its possible you missed a leak caused by striking the ground before you anchored.
