Is the Lifepod supposed to drift?

I started a new game, built a small base and the seamoth nearby Lifepod 5 in the safe shallows and went off to the floating Island for all the scanables and veggies.
Following the beacon for Lifepod 5, I ended up over deep water. Deep, Leviathan infested water. My seamoth was eaten and after some frantic swimming, I finally reached Lifepod 5- nowhere near the base, way out West with a Leviathan swimming deep below.
What? Why? Why did the Lifepod move? Is it supposed to? It hasn't done that to me before?!

It's happened to me as well. It has the ability to move, but it's rare

Repairing the lifepod is supposed to prevent this, but doesn't always work. So be sure you repaired it, and then, if it still happens, report it, I guess.
