Actually no! I have resolved the problem of bouncing boats/rafts - you just need to give them a higher mass in Silent 3ditor.. You need to set it to an ahistorically high value, like maybe 250 tons (which is actually the weight of a small trawler) but it makes the lifeboats handle much better.

The side effect is that colliding with them can damage your submarine, but this in turn can be eliminated by strengthening the submarine's bow compartments - again with Silent 3ditor.
