I've wondered the same thing, then you have to think about the types of people who end up crewing ships. At least the captain should have access to something.
It all could be solved with a continuous circuit of A-10's patrolling ~12 miles offshore.
The A-10's would be untouchable, and the pilot could strafe 30 boats or more per flight, and they have the ability to loiter over their patrol area for hours.
Yeah, who knew the island chinks could handle pew pews. But aren't we supposed to root for the sand niggers taking the fight against blackrock's tea clippers kinetic?
My million dollar idea involves curb stomping baby Jews and forcing their Jew-Mothers to walk around the city while wearing the Jew-Baby corpses around their necks.
If you know of any Angel Investors, tell them to hit me up.
I like the aesthetic, but a business needs to be monetizable. I see the value your idea brings, but if people aren't paying for that value it's not sustainable.
A boat that size would have to be loaded down with fuel tanks to get far out into the ocean where it could attempt to hijack the big ships. Also the pirates are known to bring explosives for breaching metal doors and setting up booby traps
Very interesting to infer what the explosives were by the fact that they could be set off by a bullet. Likely a binary explosive like ammonium nitrate with an aluminum powder sensitizer (basically tanerite). That rules out c4, pure ammonium nitrate, and anfo. Does leave TATP as a possibility but that was a lot of fire for that.
I'm not saying it was amonium nitrate + aluminum specifically but my bet is that or another binary. Could be PLX.
Now I'm second guessing myself entirely because of the visuals. It could just be propane. If so that's a fucking retarded breaching "explosive". But that is quite a fire ball and zero shock wave.
I just assumed that if someone is going to rig up an explosive boat that it's going to use actual explosives. Why would someone rig up a boat that will do more damage by ramming?

If one crew member has the ability to scuttle the ship on a mad whim.., well, then we will need keep constant watch on every crewman .
It’s a trust thing when out at sea. There is no law that applies to murder when the living all agree……
…that’s why I only sailed with my dog….R.I.P……., ya, he was the captain but I didn’t kill him…, My Lord…

Such a system would be locked by the captain. And you shouldn't hire niggers, arabs, or jews to crew your ships.

Really though, an half full tank of gasoline is as explosive as an half empty nigger brain…, let me explain…
It’s not the liquid fuel that ignites initially, it’s the chamber of volatile fumes that erupt thus spraying and exploding the liquid fuel…
