  2. Save and Quit after deploying them. [1]

Documented workaround

Reduce Haste screen shake and camera turning

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The Haste VFX setting disables its field-of-view pull and screen shake. Camera Follow Mode separately changes whether the camera automatically turns with the boat. [2]
