For some time now, Earth has been heavily influenced by the aliens, who have conquered the oceans, sinking a lot of the ships, making that kind of transportation of goods impossible. Warren works with that kind of ship anyway, because he can't get any other kind of job. Until the shipwreck and the long days on the raft. Often meeting the swimming aliens.
