Former yacht pro here, been employed as a first mate by Russian minigarch (I am Russian too). Working on a yacht is indeed dangerous and all safety precautions must be taken. All cases described in an article are examples of deadly negligence: one should wear life west when operating tender boat after sunset, one should use additional harness line while hanging on significant height, and one definitely should not try to jump on a boat from pier after drunk night (did it once on my vacation, was centimeters from poor chap's fate, lesson learned). I don't see, however, how's boat owners are responsible for this except hiring slightly wrong people to manage and command their expensive property.
