maybe a mixture of low ridership and drowning?

Well they certainly would be riding low if passengers start drowning.

You get incidents like the MV Sewol once every few years which is like 300+ fatalities over night, then pretty frequent minor sinkings in more calm waters with just a few deaths, and then regular overboards where people just fall in and no one notices.
