Remember, small boats made the crossing loaded with soldiers and under attack from the Luftwaffe.

there wasn't the amount and SIZE of shipping then there is now, most of these large tankers and container ships wont even see a small boat in their path and go straight over the top of it.

But you can see them, it's not difficult to stop or turn a small yacht, and even if you couldn't the chances of being hit are small. It's the channel, not the M25.
