Ahoy all fishermen,
A new update version: 1.5.777.8859 is now available. In this update we reworked how the deepline works, with a new behaviour that will make deeplining better than before. A new bank loan screen is added under the finance tab, to make it easier to keep track of any bank loans you have taken.
We improved the steering on a few boats and fixed some major issues both in the main game and Scallops DLC.

- Reworked deeplines, new behaviour! After a fish is on your hook you now have between 6 and 8 (game) hours to reel in the deepline or the fish escapes. But you also don't want to haul immediately, since you could catch more if you wait longer. You will be notified for each new fish on the hook, but not for escaped fish. The buoys on the map will be blue as long as at least one fish is on the hook.
- Moved sonar depth meter to the left side on sonar
