I think perhaps you're confused about what ship I'm using. if you look 
closely you might notice this is no longer a huge ocean liner, I've replaced 
it with a more appropriatly scaled trawler (as noted in my first post in 
this thread).

To make this a bit more visible, here's a render without any water, and one 
with the boat moved closer to the camera & life ring for comparison of 
scale.
