Word to the Israelis. DO NOT board ships. Disable them. What will they do if they are adrift? Make faces at you? Do not risk the lives of your soldiers, snooping and pooping aboard a floating ambush.
Put a few .50 cal rounds through the side of the boat into their engine. Run strong fishing net around their propellers. Knock a few holes in their hold below the waterline, discreetly.
And if you are going to disable those ships, be sure to hire a few neutral ships, to tow them to a neutral port. Problem solved. A few weeks in some pest hole getting their ship repaired, and most of them will be fed up with the whole idea.
That is an awesome piece of advice! Seriously.
Very good!
