  • Well the safety has gotten better since 80’s and 90’s. sadly exactly due to the sinkings. More compartmentalising, stricter automatic safety measures and alerts. For example actually mandating on bridge “hey captain, your barn is open” alerts and so on. Mostly getting rid of the dangerous upward opening visors, which own buoyancy is constantly pulling it open.

    Well there is still the overcrowded small ferries issue. Which is down to old worn out ferries badly maintained and overloaded. nothing one can do about that. One can sink any ship by exceeding carrying capacity and not maintaining the things that should be watertight, watertight.
