It would be interesting to know in a survey what people think the dangers are when it comes to the ocean. I would guess the first thing many would say is shark. Watch too many Jaws movie.

you dont want to be in the middle of the ocean during a hurricane on ship. A thousand foot ship is treated like a toy.

Every year in Australian waters many tourists drown due to rip tides, and/or unable to swim. They see Australians swimming and surfing, and tourists unfamiliar with beaches have no idea what risks are involved. Australian TV, especially in summer periods repeatedly have warnings and education about using patrolled areas on beaches.
