This paper made some statistical analyses on marine accidents in Korean waters using marine accident statistics. They were verified through analyses of one-way ANOVA: the difference in average number of marine accidents among Korean waters, between fishing and non-fishing vessels, and by year and by month The pairwise post hoc multiple comparisons of REGW-For GH test were additionally tested. As a result, there were significance differences among Korean waters. The difference of marine accidents by year was verified to have a statistical significance in the South and the East Sea for the fishing vessel, and in the South Sea for the non-fishing vessel. There were signifiant differences of monthly marine accidents by month in the Yellow and the East Sea for the fishing vessel only.
