The Balao is an odd beast if you accept the assignment to one too early. It will make it impossible to dock the boat, and as far as we can tell, in perpetuity... If you can, post your JSGME activated mod list, what boat you had, where you sailed from and the date. Then, what base did you return to with that boat, when your were given the Balao, and the date of that. Did you make any Saves during the patrol? Any prior to docking back at your home port prior to the Balao assignment? I haven't had much time to attempt tests to get an early Balao lately, but I was looking at possibly trying to figure-out a way to correct the files - if the game allows that...
