It may have only been a frigate but it did pretty well against Royal Navy ship of the line.

As far as an unattended vessel being liable, if it drags anchor or you fail to account for the swinging circle based on how much scope you have out under normal or foreseeable circumstances, it's one thing. If it is ripped from its moorings by a tidal wave and dumped several miles inland it is quite another.
Having your boat (or anything else stolen) it's one thing to have a physical barrier breached by force and quite another to have someone violate a position of trust. If the harbormaster decides to take your tub for a joyride while you are ashore and hazards another vessel is it your fault?
By your reasoning, if someone were to take their gun to an armory for storage and the guard stole it, you seem to insist that the owner should be held liable.
So back to your real position, no one can steal what you don't have. And that is the bottom line for you, the only acceptable security is for no one to possess anything worth stealing.
