This boat has shown up in Connecticut all the way from its home port of the "Bikini islands"

wherever that is!

Anyway, there were some big boats with their players on them last year, till this guy showed up and now they all look like LITTLE bow riders compared to this guy!!

Where in CT?

Herb Chambers keeps his boat down in Old Lyme from time to time. I believe it's in the higher 200' range, 262' comes to mind. It's quite the size in the mouth of the river.

I would think the Navy Seals are to thwart any attempt of kidnapping or perhaps she sails in waters inhabited by pirates.
I'd love to see their armory!!!!

As far as the whole pirate thing goes... how do they get onboard those ships ? can't flame throwers do a better job than water hoses.?if they come up a set of stairs, wait till the boarders are all on it,flame the boat they got there on , and either torch the gangway , or just cut it loose....just a thought....

It is my understanding (and I could easily be wrong, so please correct me without inhibition if I am) that you cannot carry a firearm in international waters... Or, at least, you cannot carry into 99.9% of the harbors in the world.

That is how these ships are taken so easily. The pirates have guns, the people aboard the ship do not.

Now where have I heard this arguement before... Criminals have guns, honest working folks don't.... Criminals take from the honest folks.. Hmmm... Weird.

In my short Google search, it appears that carrying into waters is fine.. It's going into the harbors of foreign countries where you run into problems.

So if you never have to dock the boat..... Hmm.
