REAL question about piracy at sea
Just getting into the cruising lifestyle.. saw a lame post here about piracy
on the sea, but it did bring to mind some stories I've heard about problems people have had, especially in Mexico. My questions a Is piracy a problem at all really? Or only in certain areas and only rarely? Is the government seizure of boats in Mexican water a problem? A family friend was in Mexican water when his boat was boarded and searched by, apparently, the Federales. He had a couple of shotguns on board for protection. They arrested him, charged him with running guns, and extorted a bunch of money before letting him go, but they kept the boat and the guns. Common? |
