OOC: Well, no, it does not. Per Law of the Seas, each piece of land creates its own seaborder. 24 miles out from any seaborder is territorial waters.It does not matter where each piece of land is located, since the seaborder follows from the piece of land and the territorial water follow from the seaborder, thus it is not possible for a piece of land not to be surrounded by territorial waters.
OOC: Where are you getting that from? The resolution simply states: "DEFINES the term ‘sea border’ as the point where waters meet the land at mean low tide, or where such a border would exist at sea level in the case of undersea nations;" It does not specify whether this applies to all bodies. Also, I am changing what I wrote a bit. The waterways between islands should be treated as internal waters. While this term is not used in 168 or this bill, it means that innocent passage is not allowed.
OOC: There is no reasonable interpretation of this part that does not include all bodies of land. Otherwise, the definition would be useless in the first place.
