19. The Legend of 1900 (1998)
A infant, abandoned on the transatlantic liner a fictional ship, matures to be a talented keyboardist (the main star) who remains aboard the boat.

15. Final Journey (1960)

14. Nile Killing (1978)
Angela Lansbury are among the homicide possibilities on board a Egyptian riverboat in this celebrity-filled Agatha Christie murder mystery. The lead actor, as Hercule Poirot, is unable to halt numerous characters being killed, which whittles down his potential killers to a limited selection. Bags more fun than the modern adaptation.
13. Dead Calm (1989)
Nicole Kidman act as a partners trying to get over the pain of their child's passing by sailing their boat for a trip in the ocean, where they recover another actor from a damaged vessel. Poor decision! Phillip Noyce's thriller is basically a killers-on-the-loose story at sea, but an high-quality one that made her famous.
12. Maggie's Tale (1954)
An Englishman, moving furniture for an American industrialist, is tricked into employing a dilapidated "type of boat" in this filmmaker's harsh British film in the rebellious style of his own Whisky Galore!.

9. Total Loss (2013)
Robert Redford delivers a mature exemplary performance in single character portrayal as a man fighting to endure in the Indian Ocean after his yacht, the main setting, is harmed in a crash with an errant shipping container. It's stressful enough to view, so one can only imagine how physically gruelling it must have been for the senior performer to film.
8. Vessel Leader (2013)
The main star provides excellent performance in one of his regular-guys-under-intolerable-pressure characters, as the skipper of an American cargo ship commandeered by maritime criminals off the specific location. He's matched by another actor ("Now I'm in charge"), delivering a outstanding initial cinematic appearance as the pirate chief in the director's suspense film, inspired by true stories. Should the final sequence doesn't make you blub, you're emotionally detached.
7. Geometric Shape (2009)
