I guess what I don't understand is with all that open ocean...wouldn't it be pretty tough to actually hit the only other boat out there? You'd almost have to aim for it.

Around ports, especially one as busy as Singapore, ship traffic gets pretty heavy. Add fog, nighttime, and long stopping/turning distances, it's even more dangerous.

Then of course there's always the idiots driving those little sports models, carrying lumber or rubber duckies, or some such, passing on the shoulder, weaving in and out, and running lights, just to show off.

Damn whippersnappers!
