From the thread 12ga shotgun vs. 2 boats of Pirates you posted:
“Shooting from a yacht is similar to shooting from the roof of an SUV, while driving across rutted fields. It has NOTHING to do with range shooting. You cannot get a "rest." You can only shoot offhand, while your boat is moving in several directions at once.”
Modify the CROWS and add gyro stabilization.
(Yes, the technology exists)


Just mount that on the top of your boat!

It's gotta be a pretty big yacht to mount a CROWS.

I'm guessing they can afford it.

Modify? Get the Rafael mini-Typhoon

(The full version is more fun, but how many of us have anti-tank missiles?)

As for legality, civilian ownership of naval artillery was an expectation, when the Constitution was written. It is an implied right (unlike most of the crap the Supreme Court makes up). You can't have letter of Marque without armed merchantmen.
