They should have small arms on the vessels, but very few of them do.

A crew of 21, armed even with .308 semi's, who were trained in their basic use, would make mence meat of four guys trying to baoard a large ship form a skiff.

What kind of learning curve are we talking about here? How long have these pirates been doing this? It’s not rocket science.
Good grief- lets just take care of our own ships. If the rest of the world wants to be victims forever, let’em.
Several here have had logical ways to deal with this- including blasting the ports the pirates come from. I can’t believe these companies want to keep losing $$ to these half-naked scum bags.
Don’t get me started on why anyone is still shipping to this area at all.
Mercy aid to Africa? IF they want it, let’em stop the pirates, if not- let’em rot and starve.
