This threat with these pirates is a serious one, especially to smaller ships that can be so easily seized. I would really not worry on a large ship like the Voyager it is too big a target but to be on a small ship like this in that area of the world I would never consider.

In fact I am not too thrilled with small charter yachts in the Caribbean either. Have had several friends want me to do this and go to some of the more remote islands. This is out of my comfort zone. I just feel you are too vulnerable on open water, in a small boat and few yachts or other people around. Some will think I am nuts to worry about that I guess we all have our tolerances.
