Luxury Yacht Company Offers Pirate Hunting Cruises
Jun 26th 2009 By Nick Prueher

Passengers on a new cruise along the coast of Somalia are paying to catch more than just salmonella.

A Russian luxury yacht company is now offering pirate-hunting trips that promise the chance to be attacked by real sea bandits. The yachts cruise from Djibouti to Mombasa in Kenya at deliberately low speeds in the hopes of attracting pirates.

Passengers pay $5,000 for the trip, and an extra $17.50 a day for an AK-47 and 100 rounds of ammo. The price includes free origami towels in the rooms. Former Special Forces troops are on board to make sure none of the cruise passengers are injured.

Haha, didn't someone suggest this already here? Can you bring your own weapons / ammo?

Oh now that's just plain silly. But it does put a new twist on the term "varmint hunting"

It can't be much of a cruise if you only need 100 rounds.

It's actually a marksmanship course designed to improve your accuracy.

Wonder if there are any trophy fees and what the taxidermy work is like.

How 'bout the AK-47 owners amongst us just skip
the trip and buy 100 rounds for $17.50?? :-)

I wonder if there's any international law being violated here if you kill one of 'em.

To borrow from previous wisdom:

Shoot, sink, shut up.
