Insiders: accidents are quite rare
Cheuk Chee-ding, a Hong Kong based electrical engineer who had sailed around the world for a sailing trip, found the accident quite rare. Contestants were bound to "go all out to make their fortune." There was a small accident between the two. Sailing was mostly "racing the sea" Out of port "are a few dangerous." Zhu also pointed out that if the fishing vessel was working at that time, it should be sailing to avoid the fishing vessel. If the fishing vessel was not in operation at the time of the incident, the fishing boat should be avoided from sailing. Although sailing vessels are equipped with radars capable of detecting the positions of other ships, the limited power available for long-haul voyage makes it difficult to operate the radar for long periods of time and the shipwreck is required.
