Can one explosion at one place in the pipeline cause vibrations down the pipeline, possibly weakening another joint/seal further on?

Not sure. I know nothing about underwater pipelines :P

Does all the gas leaking to the surface cause boats to sink if they get too close from the change in density?

There have been three explosions in two different pipelines, North Stream 1 (the older one, which was in normal use until earlier this year) and North Stream 2 (the new one, which was pressurized but never delivered gas commercially).
