Luxury yacht sizes are becoming almost as large as cruise liners....
Even for small yachts sailing through any water bodies-- Gulf of Aden, Indian Ocean, Straits of Meleka or even Indonesian island waters... it is recommended that yacht owners and captains, who are mainly not firearms qualified carry some sort of protection with them--- in the form of armed security professionals like us.
Even if the seafarers are firearms qualified-- details such as firearms licencing and transport are best left to us professionals to negotiate with customs etc... filling in of firearms and security export.import forms can be complex... and would not it be nice to have a professional security team(s) while you and family and friends enjoy the ocean journey? You steer-- we do the fighting. All professional security teams are equipped with radios, night vision devices and legal firearms for theatre of operations.
Security teams can also accompany crews on shore leave while another stay behind team safeguards the physical security of the hull in port. This is essential in parts of the world where there is only the law of the jungle.
We are also able to arrange with EUNAVFOR or the Chinese Navy in Gulf of Aden waters to provide for ship or convoy support to deter piracy by sailing very close to them. This is a very safe option and comes with a fee. Naval Convoy protection is also available for merchant shipping in addition to security teams who will liason with our eyes in the air-- maritime surveillance planes from various navies in the Gulf of Aden.
These are three cases of what happened when the yacht owners failed to follow security precautions.
