Beach - Water not lined up with next sim

Sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask this, but I keep getting this annoying thing where the water on my sim does not line up with the water on the next sim. Thus, I get left with this uneven shore: http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/3816/error001bs1.png

Sometimes the water on my side lines up perfectly. However, sometimes it "goes down" and then doesn't match the water on the other side, and stays like that for days. It's rather annoying, and I'd like to get a permanent fix for it. How do I do this?

By the way, it's worth mentioning that the sim on the other side does not belong to anyone. In fact, technically, there is no sim. It's empty.

Oh, your image was terribly dark and I couldn't really see what was happening, but, from your description it kind of sounds like the odd Linden water glitch that showed up a few updates ago (yoo hoo, Lindens?). To fix the problem on your, or any sim you're on where the water seems to have gone missing, you want to open and then close the estate tools window -- that seems to be the workaround to the glitch (yoo hoo, Lindens?).

Yes...its hard to tell exactly what's happening. if the ESTATE work around doesn't help then, consider this:

Each SIM has a single, 'Sim Wide Sea Level' that is set by the Sim owner. The LINDENS always set their sea level at 20m. So ALL Mainland sims have water at the same sea level. PRIVATE ISLANDS, even when adjacent, can have separate and distinct sea levels. When this occurs, the water does not line up. And you get a 'here comes the Tsunami' effect.

Look in ESTATE under the TERRAIN tab for the 2 sims to see if that's the problem.
