Default Work horse gun for cruising

What is the best gun for yachting? The shotgun can blow large holes in
fiberglass, shoot flares but can be cumbersome. The pistol is easy to handle
but must be of a large caliber to be effective. My favorite is the good old
7.62 mm assault rifle. Great range, fire power and visibility - strikes fear
into the enemy. They tend to get heavy with 40 round clips, but nothing
beats the feel of an old friend pressed against your shoulder and cheek, the
smell of powder, the ring in the ears and of course the toasty warm barrel
with the odor of gun oil and solvents!

I personal recommend an HK 91, or a Springfield Armory M1A or M-14. With 40
rounds you are bound to hit something! Hoo-yah! Ah-men!!!

Why would you need a gun for yachting?

That's pretty drastic. Ever try Polident?

Ever tried manatee steaks? Or Dolphin steaks.

It's easier to shot them than to hook them.

The effluent from a well-filled, well-aimed cedar bucket is better at
repulsing boarders than a gun. The last jet-skier that was buzzing my
boat is probably still cleaning his life jacket and ride.

Waste of ammo. For close work, the Browning 9mm is good. I'm a Colt
..45 man, myself. The HK 91 is good, but the M1 or M14 are too heavy.
I don't favor an automatic rifle for close work. I prefer a pistol.
An advantage of a pistol is that it leaves you one hand free for
looting.

For looting, and fighting off other pirates, of course.
