I once read a theory that this was what was taking place in the Bermuda Triangle.

As I heard it, a Ship sailing over an area like that would lose Buoyancy and sink.

It could also take out low flying planes:

That was what came to my mind as well.

In the Bermuda Triangle story, they talked about how maybe CO2 gas bubbled up from the seafloor. That since a ship floats on the basis of the weight of the water it displaces being more than the weight of the ship, if the water weights a lot less, because it is full of gas bubbles, the ship will sink like a rock.

I would think that the gas bubbles from a volcano would also be a danger to ships in the area, especially small fishing ships.

While talking a lot about gas bubbles, the story does not even indicate the risk to ships.
