High Seas Piracy Pt 3

Somali pirates recently seized a Spanish fishing boat and held its twenty-six-member crew hostage. The pirates released the crewmen after being paid a ransom reported at over one million dollars. With the prospects of such handsome payoffs, pirates have attacked everything from oil tankers to luxury yachts in the Gulf of Aden. Using speedboats and armed with machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades, the pirates' attacks have become bolder and more frequent. According to the International Maritime Bureau, there have been thirty-one ships hijacked off the coast of Somalia last year, up from just two hijackings in 2004.
