November 17, 200817 yr http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/worl...icle5172770.ece I have an interest in live aboard sailing and have been following reports of pirates in the Gulf of Aden. They have been attacking private yachts for quite a while now. There have been efforts to create a corridor for private non commercial vessels to pass. Many people retire to boats, much like RVs. They cruise the world or just stick to the Caribbean and such.

I think that allowing themselves to be captured last time was a serious PR nightmare for them, and their standing orders for engagement have been changed. About time some of those pirates met the end of a few navy missles.
