Greetings,
The chance of failure of a twin engined vessel is exactly the same as for two single engined vessels and as Mr. bayview so rightly observes, the consequences are MUCH different. To suggest otherwise seems to be based on personal bias.
To re-answer the PO's question "... what do people do when they're single engine breaks down?" Either, wait for assistance or fix the problem in place given the spares, tools and abilities of the people on board. Case closed.
