Default Big Ship Piracy Question

What are the name of the two countries...


Hey Bart I can't answer that.

But a year or so ago I use to be an avid follower of
the weekly piracy reports that were issued by the In-
ternatial Maritime Bureau.

So your question piqued my interest...

As you well know... when it comes to the commercial
vessels... you got the ones doing the chartering (in
most cases... I think)... then the actual owners...
and last but not least the country of vessel registry.

For example... the months I spent on a small container
ship sailing the South Pacific from the West Coast... had
a San Francisco entity that was the charter... the ship
was German owned... and flagged in some Bum F*ck Egypt
type country. heh heh

But out of interest that I have in commercial vessels...
and the boarding threats in different parts of the world...
I would appreciate your conclusions.

Best regards

Yeah I'm waiting too. Id guess China and Russia, they would open up
with AK 47's and not worry to much about backlash.
