Today I decided to go after some quests, which I should because I hardly ever do. So I went out behind Tortuga to get the not-so-elusive Man-O-War. I was wondering why I didn't see anything, Until I was rudely fired upon by none other than a Man-O-War. Problem is, I didn't see him. Heres some screenies. Ships and islands are invisible if you don't get close to them as you can see.

Anyone ever come across this? It should probably be fixed ASAP, just because it is so annoying. However, it was fun for the time being.
