But a terrorist could load up a ship with explosives and sail it
somewhere and do lots of damage.  Might be hard to do the level of
damage of a ship totally packed with such things, but still.  Beats a
truck blowing up or even an airplane.  From what I understand the
security at ports is also dreadful given it just isn't considered high
priority.
