Sea accidents

Sea accidents involve unexpected events that cause vessels—like ships and boats—to collide, sink, or become stranded. These incidents can result from various factors such as severe weather, collisions with other vessels or obstacles, human errors, mechanical failures, or navigational mistakes. Despite advances in technology and safety protocols, the unpredictable nature of the sea makes accidents possible. Such events can threaten crew safety, cause environmental damage, and disrupt maritime operations. Understanding these causes helps improve safety measures and reduces the likelihood of future incidents.
