Doesn't this hold true for anywhere outside a major city? If it's going to take you hours to get to a hospital or a market, or for anyone to come to you, theoretically you're in the same predicament.
- robotkdick 8y agoPart of the issue is the lack of legal structure for ships at sea. Once you're on the boat and outside the legal boundary of a country, the captain is essentially a dictator with little legal recourse for complaints.
