Oh, a danger to other ships then

Anyway, if you did just happen to accidentally find one, wouldn't you be legally obliged to tow it back to the nearest coast (which would coincidentally be French), especially if it was overloaded, had no radio onboard, and some of the people on it were women and children?

Maybe even lawfully obliged to call the French coastguard and see what they did with it
