Abstract
Almost one hundred total losses per year of ships greater than 500gt are registered by the Institute of London Underwriters, (Underwriters, 1997), Fig. 1, however, only the very big disasters enter the view of the public. Lost ships mean economical losses and environmental risks. But these disasters are primarily painful because they take human lifes. That is why the number of total losses has to be reduced.
