    Could this happen today?
    Yes of course.
    All the technology today:GPS monitoring, computer assistance, radar, redundant systems and other "fail safes" can all be rendered useless when one incompetent person, or careless person gets thrown into the mix.
    The chances of an "oh-sh*t" incident, over the long haul, is likely in the "probable" category.
    Anyone recall the Costa Concordia, the Ocean Liner from Italy?
    That was a modern ship with modern navigation aids and see what happened to that ship.
