Great talking with you Wayne!
 
In amongst our conversation, I was talking about "Gandalf the Green",
a sailing vessel that caught my attention in rec.boats.cruising. At
the instant of concern, it was in Tailand and was fine, but another
story caught my eye, and it was this one....

http://www.sailingmagazine.net/compo...?directory=152

BTW, I thought it was a 40 ft, sloop. I was wrong. it's 47ft, steel
hulled cutter.

=========

No one who values their life or their boat should be sailing in the
Gulf of Aden, with or without a gun. It's like walking around in a
tough inner city neighborhood at night with a sign that says: "I'm a
tourist".

The penalties for getting caught with an illegal gun in some countries
are almost as severe as a pirate attack. We met a family last year in
the islands that had a beautiful home made 53 ft sailboat. The
details and finish were professional in every respect and one of it's
"features" was a hidden/secret gun compartment. It was empty.

Hey, I just had a great idea for a tourist business. You arm the teeth
out of a bunch of vacationing executives and send them out on a "bait
boat" to the gulf. When the pirates come, the executives get to open up
on them with everything they got. You could have a pool for things like
who blew the first pirates head clean off his body, and who killed the
most pirates, who sunk the first pirate vessel, etc...

It would be like a cross between the two tv shows, bait car and cash
cab... ;)

Great idea, now you just need to find a friendly home port in that
part of the world that won't mind you showing up with a boat load of
weapons and infidels on board.

You could charge extra for training sessions with advanced weaponry
like RPGs and heat seeking missiles.

I would probably have 2 hidden somewhere on a 40-50 footer.

Yeah, you could make it a theme trip. All the rich executives could do a
western theme or a Dirty Harry theme, and all dress up to kill the
pirates... Imagine the possibilities. Kids could have birthday parties
and do a powerpuffs girls theme, dress up like Sailor moon, and blow the
hell out of the pirates. Instead of pin the tail on the donkey, you
could play, pin the 50 caliber tracer in the pirates eye;) Of course
there would be a few highly trained ex special forces there to "help"
the kids with the big booms... ;)

You could charge extra for training sessions with advanced weaponry
like RPGs and heat seeking missiles.




Yeah, and if the women and kids aren't ready to handle a RPG, give them
a gamepad and let them call in close air support via radio controlled,
unmanned vehicles..

I'm thinking that it might be easier to hire a couple of smart
programmers to make a video game like that, than it would be to find a
friendly home port.


Pffffttt. Your home port could probably be right in Somolia. If you paid
off the right clan, they would "help" you hunt down their rivals;)

Hey, I just had a great idea for a tourist business. You arm the teeth
out of a bunch of vacationing executives and send them out on a "bait
boat" to the gulf. When the pirates come, the executives get to open up
on them with everything they got. You could have a pool for things like
who blew the first pirates head clean off his body, and who killed the
most pirates, who sunk the first pirate vessel, etc...


It would be like a cross between the two tv shows, bait car and cash

Hey, I just had a great idea for a tourist business. You arm the teeth
out of a bunch of vacationing executives and send them out on a "bait
boat" to the gulf. When the pirates come, the executives get to open up
on them with everything they got. You could have a pool for things like
who blew the first pirates head clean off his body, and who killed the
most pirates, who sunk the first pirate vessel, etc...


It would be like a cross between the two tv shows, bait car and cash
cab... ;)

Great idea, now you just need to find a friendly home port in that
part of the world that won't mind you showing up with a boat load of
weapons and infidels on board.


You could charge extra for training sessions with advanced weaponry
like RPGs and heat seeking missiles.


Yeah, and if the women and kids aren't ready to handle a RPG, give them
a gamepad and let them call in close air support via radio controlled,
unmanned vehicles..- Hide quoted text -

I suppose if you encountered 10 guys with automatic weapons, grenades,

easy way or to kill you and take them that you'd straighten your bow
legs and act tough huh?- Hide quoted text -

There would be no acting involved!


If you did stand up to 10 men with automatic weapons, you'd be the

This post is typical of the stalking and otherwise trollish behavior
of Harry Krause AKA, Mr. Karen Grear. Harry Krause is a vulgar
pedophile.Harry Krause said right here he thinks old men should be
able to rape girls as young as "ten years old" and spirit them "over
state lines" with not parental consent, "or even notification" to
protect the rapist from prosecution... Anybody who has been here long
enough knows his kids left home as soon as they were able, likely to
try to break the cycle of family abuse, and he cried about it here for
years. He has stalked and photographed women in this group with the
clear intent to drive them from posting here, which he accomplished
with several of them, we all know the names... This is a really sick
dude, really. Harry Krause, Huntington Maryland. Dr, Karen Grear,

Translate this, big boy. You ran one woman off because she was a
member
of the power squadron and knew something about boats, navigation,
rules,search and rescue etc. You ran another off because she was a
boater, was an expert in one aspect of boating maintenance, was good
looking and intelligent, and was willing to share an opinion or two on
politics. Another lady seemed to have a good head for engineering and
gave our engine techs a run for their money when discussing the latest
engine technology. All of these women had something of interest to
offer
boaters. Why did you run them off, and why did you seem to have a
change
of heart about women and embrace the little tramp that latched onto us
as of late.
