Add Warning Sound to Deep Ocean

I just died because I afked for 30 seconds while swimming on row boat. I only heard some ring that is the same as getting a quest. All it took was like 10 seconds on deep ocean for me to die, this is a joke honestly.

EDIT: there is absolutely no water difference in game as well. It looks like normal water. Can't even get some water from kitchen without dying...

EDIT2: Maybe even stop people from entering deep ocean on rowboat and canoe without a toggle.

This is a real big issue imo. Unless you're very cognizant about where you're rowing, deep water looks identical to deep Deep water. Like OP mentioned, maybe someone steps away at just the wrong time and misses the (very small) warning, and is further seduced by the deeper Waters.

On top of that, unless you have Wizard Eyes, distinguishing damage levels of a seaworthy vessel is difficult, if not impossible, without a custom clients help.

Having actually visibly changed models for damaged sea vessels would be cool and functionally useful.

Having deep Deep water visually distinct from normie water would be cool and functionally useful

Lol just look at the map, who even plays looking at the ground not on the map

Don't AFK while traveling is the take-away here. >.<

Yeah I would agree with that if ocean wouldn't destroy boats in 10 seconds

Simple solution. Don't afk while swimming IN OCEAN

I almost lost my guy when going into deep ocean. I saw the notification but it's very misleading as it says the boat will be "damaged over time", which I thought implied like 5 minutes and not a measly 10 seconds.
We also have no way to recover bodies if they're lost at sea.

I didn't and crossing the invisible water border 3 times and turning back after message, destroyed my fully fixed rowboat in less than 2 seconds.
