Not really relevent to yachting cruisers - all the piracy reported here is
to do with Shipping. It's the same concerning the Piracy reports I've been
reading in various magazines such as Latitudes and Attitudes - to do with,
generally, armed theft of goods and money from container ships. There is
vanishingly little "piracy" to cruising sailors around the world, apart from
stolen outboard motors, etc.
