I understand that the Navy destroyer was as much as a mile away from the lifeboat containing the pirates and hostage. If true it should have been closer.

No, it would have been too embarrassing for Obama if the destroyer got so close that the pirates were able to board it and take control of it.

How could only 4 terrorists/pirates board an armed Navy destroyer and take control of it? Please elucidate.
