Or perhaps torpedo tubes, that would work.

Why stop there? Why not a 105 mm deck gun?

You can buy a nice M2 (for about the price of a 25' center console, plus a
$200
tax stamp) but you can't own anything with a bore greater than .5" unless
it is
a shotgun or muzzle loader (Gun Control Act of 1968).
You could get a few muzzle loading cannon though ;-)

Cannons! That's the ticket!

It usually isn't, at least not in this hemisphere. What we have here is
gun talk bravado, nothing more.


That's silly, Harry. I carry a handgun because I fish alone in some
extremely remote places and believe me when I tell you that I've run into
some very spooky people. We're talking Deliverance material, but in the
Adirondacks. A former boss grew up there. I told him once that I'd could see
myself living in the middle of 4000 acres of forest preserve. His comment:
"You'd be a catch for the local women. You have teeth, you can read and
write, and you like working for a living". I know people who live there.
It's rare to find anyone who ventures into the woods or onto wilderness
waters without some sort of weapon. And, it's not the bears they're
concerned with. It's people and feral dogs.

I'm assuming the Coast Guard is a generic place to start but does
anyone know of anything specific?

Thanks

whew there's some sobering news. I wonder if how many of these attacks
are against private vessels?

Sounds like we're fairly safe here in North America.

Yeah.... here you only have to worry when the Coast Guard boards your boat!

I doubt someone stealing the prop off your outboard is going to show up on an
international piracy web site and I suspect that is what the OP was curious
about.
