Unfortunately the only difference between Somali fisherman and pirates
is guns and opportunity. Frequently they are one and the same, and
there are a lot of them. Imagine trying to track all of the fishing
boats off the coast of Florida.

I am pretty sure that is done. Why not? USA has satellites up there.
It might not be available to local cops, but somewhere in NSA or CIA...

I bet they can find the mother ships. These are not coastal pirates.

As I understand it the mother ships are more like our local shrimp
boats here, perhaps smaller. Those boats have a surprisingly long
operating range and are not all that large.

Yep but if you are watching them you can tell the difference between a
boat that is fishing and one that is just scouting around looking for
targets.These are cameras that can read the logo on the boat. They can
certainly see if they are dragging nets and pulling in fish.

No need for skiffs in the water leaving the boat area if they are
fishing. See that happen, no ask, just sink.

google the story

i'm a ham radio operator. about 10 years ago i was on the 'maritme'
net when we got a call that a sailboat had been attacked by pirates
off the coast of honduras. a 17 year old boy had been shot. the
honduran navy does not go out at night so there was no relief until
the next day...very touch and go...

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.

We need to recover the sailboat so we can tax it as an asset as it's
going from parents to children.

LOL!

Very liberal of you!

Yeah, that is a cruel joke. Not only will we tax the kids for their
parent's boat, we also tax them to keep their parent's killers in
prison for 50 years or so.

What's needed is an anchor that can be transformed into a .50 cal. It is really
hard to believe that we're bringing those f**kers back here for a trial.

It's hard to believe for people like you, because you don't believe in
Due Process.

Looks like we got us a misogynist here.
Or maybe a pussy-whipped feller.
Worked on a crew with one of the pussy-whipped "guys" once.
He'd come in with a knot on his forehead and tell us his wacky
wife hit him with a serving spoon because he wouldn't finish his peas.
Pretty hilarious. He gave us a lot of laughs.
Either way, a dweeb is a dweeb.
Got a feeling poor Tim has talked to this guy.
All the losers take advantage of Tim's genuine friendliness.
Then they betray him with this kind of conduct.
It's a shame.

Yeah, we know you all a hate that we talk to Tim so much that you all
have been chasing him from group to group trying to embarrass him to
stop.. Shame on you, and oh, it didn't work.. Just ****ed him off. AT
YOU!

them right there and then.

Check out rec.boats cruising. And what about Irene. Are there multiple
personalities involved here?
