Let me add a small thought here about liability and consequences of 
disasters. Since most likely, the reactor would be loaded once, and then 
welded shut, with a 0% chance of "exploding". If something should go 
seriously wrong, the ship would sink to the bottom of the ocean, and all 
would be well.

That is why from a safety point of view, nucelar powered ships are great!

And that is why flying nuclear powered things, are less great.
