"Swimming on"

I cannot find this mentioned anywhere, so perhaps this has always been the case, but when one disembarks on land with no shallow water tiles adjacent, you need to turn on swimming to reembark.

When you initially disembark it displays the message 'You need to turn swimming on', and displays that again when you wish to reembark but prevents you. You can still interact with the boat, taking out it's contents and I assume destroy it. It blocks movement when jutting onto land ie: my character is definitely able to 'touch' it. I have tried coming up to shore in multiple orientations and places, but I believe it wishes to move my character to the centre of the boat before I enter which would require swimming.

A very minor inconvenience, but accidentally leaving swimming on can lead to death.

Yeah it's a new one. Appeared after Loftar fixed the bug with multiple people embarking.
Please fix.

I've so far not had to turn it on to get back on the boat, but I've gotten the message multiple times when I've been able to embark and disembark over deep water. Might be the exact positioning of the boat?

I can confirm I have the same problem even on SHALLOW WATER. It mostly occurs when I'm on higher ground then boat is, but, THAT happening on a shallow water? C'mon...

I've always been receiving this message when embarking and disembarking on areas without shallow water but I never had to turn swimming on to do it, the message displayed but it still worked fine.
