I only started looking at it when some friends got "mugged" aboard their
sailboat in the Carribean.

Whoa. They made it out alright, I hope.

Some of these cats, particularly in Indonesian and some African coastal
waters, are pretty desperate and murder of entire crews is on the rise.

Fortunately it sounds like the SEALS have a solution for that, but there are
of course environmental concerns with sinking a tanker loaded with bunker
fuel and, say, benzene.... which might be why don't hear about it so much
in the news.
