Should they send luxury yachts secretly armed with the best military weapons to the coast of Somalia?
A Somali pirate spots a luxury yacht and discovers that it is perfect to hijack.
As they get closer… all hell breaks loose when the luxury yacht sailors arm themselves with AK-47s, rocket launchers, missile launchers.
Isn't this the perfect way to stomp some pirate skulls? send in bait to lure the Somali pirates then secretly have the military close by and BAM SURPRISE ATTACK.
I'm eager to hear your comments...and I'll send you a free gift.

Da!
Plus, the reward could be the Navy guys getting to keep the yachts for rotating R&R.
Brilliant.

actually i think there are probably not luxury yachts cruising there for fear of pirates right? so pirates might be suspicious of a yacht.
i dont see that there is an advantage arming decoy yachts vs just arming existing purposeful maritime traffic, unless the assumption is a yacht is more certain to get attacked.
it seems like just uncessarily putting expensive boats in harms way at the taxpayers expense. so why not? it will be more fun to watch that CDO deleveraging and far less expensive.

Many of the super yacht management companies, employ ex military as crew and/or security on there yachts, normally marines military police or ex special forces. You would be a brave pirate to try and board a yacht with those guys on.
Personally i’m all for it, and mans house is his castle and all that. If a pirate tried to board my yacht i would have no qualms about firing a few rounds across there bows. In fact i think it would be a good idea for security companies to offer escort services to yachts for anybody that would be willing to pay for it. Pirates are just armed robbers and hijackers who are willing to use lethal force. Live buy the sword die by the sword. Also why hasn’t NATO or the UN just sent a few destroyers out there to wipe them out, unprecedented show of force, thats how it was done in the 17th and 18th century and it worked.
