Navy SEALS are pissed. They know that if they'd at least been in the water in the vicinity, they could have taken advantage of the situation.

From what has come out today, the SEALs did not arrive at the Bainbridge until Saturday night, long after the good captain's escape attempt. Schnookering the pirates into allowing a tow line to the Bainbridge was brilliant, whoever thought that one up is pretty slick. It allowed the SEALs to set up sniper shop on the fantail and to have a continual view through the rear window/hatch of the lifeboat.

Agreed. This was a very impressive performance by the Navy.
