Im not disagreeing with that claim. But anybody who does make a living at sea would surely note the risk is minimized when collisions at sea are expected, and can be planned for, and there are rescue boats in the area, and so on...
It is was an unexpected and unplanned for event, yes, the risk would be greater.
And i still recognize the risk is serious in any regard. But it is much smaller to the whalers than it is to the whales or to Watson.
