Description
This book is not a scare tactic; it is not my intention to frighten people. I simply want to ensure that cruising sailors are cognizant of and seriously consider that they expose themselves to various forms of nefarious activity. I assess the risk of exposure to be approximately the same as being involved in a severe weather event. We lessen the consequences of such by thinking about it, training to prevail over it and equipping our vessel with gear to help us to survive.
The same philosophy applies to the way we prepare to meet and hopefully prevail over any nefarious activity we may encounter. Start by thinking about it, if you’ve bought this book you’ve already started. Train for it by going over in your mind and with your shipmates the responses you’ll make and the measures you’ll take in every possible scenario you can imagine. Including practice with any weapons you carry for self defence.
Just as it is virtually impossible for a small boat to survive a maelstrom it is equally impossible to prevail over a dedicated piracy/terrorist confrontation.
Fortunately, maelstroms are rare and so are confrontations with dedicated pirates and terrorists. By reading this book you have started to protect yourself from a majority of confrontations you might encountert .
