Russian Yacht Charter Firm Offer PIRATE HUNTING CRUISES Luxury ocean liners in Russia are offering Pirate Hunting Cruises aboard armed private yachts off the Somali coast.
Wealthy sportsmen pay upwards of $5,000 per day to patrol the most dangerous waters in the world hoping to be attacked by raiders.
The story as it's written suggests the clients are already engaging Somali pirates with grenade launchers, machine guns and rocket launchers.
An AK-47 assault rifle goes for $8.50 a day, 100 rounds of ammo is $11.50, are also protected by a squad of ex-special forces troops.
The yachts travel from Djibouti in Somalia to Mombasa in Kenya, cruising deliberately close to the coast at a speed of just five nautical miles in an attempt to attract the interest of pirates.
Hard to imagine who is worse; the pirates, who are just trying to earn a decent living through the time-honored trade of kidnapping, or these so-called sportsmen who are essentially fronting up cash to hunt humans . . .
Tell you what: if this bloggee thingee doesn't start paying some bills around here, I'd consider going for a little sea cruise . . .
Looks suspiciously like a joke website that's been around a while.
