1. A system for detecting collision risk to a secured marine vessel using a vision system of the marine vessel, the system comprising:
a plurality of cameras, including at least a first camera and a second camera,
wherein each of the plurality of cameras is configured to be mounted to the marine vessel with an associated field of view of an environment of the marine vessel;
one or more hardware processors configured to:
determine that the marine vessel is secured;
cause the plurality of cameras to capture image data at a reduced rate based on the determination that the marine vessel is secured;
determine, based on image data generated by one or more of the plurality of cameras, that the marine vessel is at an increased risk of collision; and
generate a collision alert based on the increased risk of collision.
