google the story
If they killed all the hostages the answer is simple, sink the boat
and leave the survivors bobbing in the sea.

They're on a very nice sailboat owned by the dead hostage.

They no longer have need of it. The sailboat is a pirate ship now. Lob
a few 5" HE rounds into it from a couple miles away and come home.

If we really want to stop this crap we can.
Use aerial surveillance to profile the mother ships, monitor them from
over the horizon and when they start an attack, be there with air
power.. If you sink a few of these, the pirates may decide pirating is
not worth the risk.

Then what?Pirating is 100% of the Somali GNP.
