Hello there. I am sorry for the trouble this has caused and thank you for reaching out. Just a reminder that when flying your DJI Mavic Mini above the water, the vision positioning function will turn off automatically and only the GPS and barometer are used for positioning, if affected by the accuracy range, and an accident might happen. In addition, I will also post a DJI Forum thread on How to Fly Safely Over Water. Thank you and fly safe always.

Hi Stephen,
Bit surprised by your writing.... a drone doesn`t know if it is flying above water or not!
Within range the visual position (for a MM only the bottom sensor) will work only if there is enough light and enough reference AND if the GPS is not functioning, this when flying over land, water, over any surface. GPS not working than into OPTI mode ; so MM is stabilized by use of the bottom sensor.
So flying above water with a good GPS 'connection', no problem! The only time a MM gets into trouble over water if flying at low speed / hover over moving water...then the bottom positioning will affect drone keeping position performance.
cheers
