Also, I gotta say, I've seen an awful lot of pirate ships sinking today. Open and test. The main factor, is that even with the compass zoomed in, broadsides only go half as far as they did yesterday. Deck cannons still have exactly the same range they had yesterday, so I'm not sure what to report.
When zoomed all the way in, it looks like it was before. The problem is its not, so soon as a ship fully enters just in the compass, it now is still out of range unlike before. Cannon range isn't effected by this because you gage the distance to the ship on the cannon practically the same you previously had.

One of the first things I reported was ships appearing do not show up on compass. This really catching you off guard something appearing behind your line of site, while on wheel or cannon. Definitely going to see more sinkings with ships appearing blind like this and first thing you will know is a full hit.
