How about:
"The Marine Committee of the NZ Insurance Council (http://www.icnz.org.nz) has been
researching issues surrounding the dangers of lost shipping containers in New Zealand
waters, particularly to smaller craft and modern fast passenger ferries. It is known that
a significant number of lost containers in New Zealand waters are not reported. Some
containers remain afloat, often below the surface, long enough to be a real hazard to
shipping."

Please speak in complete thoughts, and maybe even cite real life examples to
support your claim that this could even happen.

Thank you
