Maybe kind of along the lines of knowing it's possible that a violent storm can rear it's ugly head without notice on our passage. We might reason about the chances of the boat capsizing and loosing our life at sea etc etc. Yet we still go.

Also too most cruisers I know are a self-loathing bunch of sheep. They tend to believe having firearms will only escalate to more violence. A simple flare gun or their little LhasaApso will scare off any would be intruders. They have a real screwed up world view, believing if they could just talk with these people they could bring peace and harmony to the high seas. They just don't get it there are people out there who wish to do them harm and take their possessions.

Cruising magazines once awhile tell of rape and murder but never offer good advice. Usually they follow-up with the latest stun-gun color fashions.
