Ships of SSV's tonnage dun get sunken by tsunamis ... deaths came about only through those trapped in smaller vessels & in buildings very near to the shores.

What really baffles me is that earthquakes (even underwater ones) should be predictable at this time & age ... so was this all about human complacency again??
I mean, all in the maritime community would be warned of any tropical revolving storm building up, so why weren't anybody warned of these tsunamis??
