Somali Cruise Package
http://www.co-ar15.com/forums/mhtml:....mud.yahoo.com
This is the best idea yet. Be sure and read the whole thing. I was
checking cruise lines because I heard the rates are very cheap right now.
I found a Somali cruise package that departs from Sawakin (in the Sudan) and
docks at Bagamoya (in Tanzania).
The cost is a bit high @ 800 per person double occupancy but I didn't find
that offensive. What I found encouraging and enlightened is that the cruise
is encouraging people to bring their 'High powered weapons' along on the
cruise. If you don't have your own weapons you can rent them right there on
the boat. They claim to have a master gunsmith on board and will have
reloading parties every afternoon as well as optional marksmanship training.
The cruise lasts from 4-8 days and nights and costs a maximum of $3200 per
person double occupancy (4 days). All the boat does is sail up and down the
coast of Somalia waiting to get hijacked by pirates. Here are some of the
costs and claims associated with the package.
* $800.00 US/per day double occupancy (4 day max billing)
* M-16 full auto rental $ 25.00/day ammo at 100 rounds of 5.56 armor
piercing ammo at 15.95

ammo at 14.95

* Barrett M-107 .50 cal sniper riffle rental 55.00/day ammo at 25
rounds 50 cal armor piercing at 9.95

* Crew members can double as spotters for 30.00 per hour (spotting
scope included).
* Wow - they even offer RPG's at 75 bucks and 200 dollars for 3
standard loads

* "Everyone gets use of free complimentary night vision equipment and
coffee and snacks on the top deck from 7pm-6am."
* Meals are not included but costs seem reasonable.
* Most cruises offer a mini-bar... these gung ho entrepreneurs
offer......... get this.....
* "MOUNTED MINIGUN AVAILABLE @ 450.00 per 30 seconds of sustained
fire"

They advertise group rates and corporate discounts......and even claim "FUN
FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY"
They even have a partial money back offer if not satisfied....here's some
text from the ad.
"We guarantee that you will experience at least two hijacking attempts by
pirates or we will refund half your money back including gun rental charges
and any unused ammo (mini-gun charges not included). How can we guarantee
you will experience a hijacking? We operate at 5 knots within 12 miles of
the coast of Somalia. If an attempted Hijacking does not occur we will turn
the boat around and cruise by at 4 knots. We will repeat this for up to 8
days making three passes a day along the entire length of Somalia. At night
the boat is fully lit and bottle rockets are shot off at intervals and loud
disco music beamed shore side to attract attention. Cabin space is limited
so respond quickly. Reserve your package before the end of May and get
100 rounds of free tracer ammo in the caliber of your choice."

As if all that isn't enough to whet your appetite, there were a few
testimonials
* "I got three confirmed kills on my last trip. I'll never hunt big
game in Africa again. I felt like the Komandant in Schindlers list!"----
Lars, Hamburg, Germany
* "Six attacks in 4 days were more than I expected. I bagged three
pirates and my 12yr old son sank two rowboats with the mini-gun. PIRATES
0 - PASSENGERS-32! Well worth the trip. Just make sure your spotter speaks
English" - Ned, Salt Lake city, Utah USA
* "I haven't had this much fun since flying choppers in NAM. Don't
worry about getting shot by pirates as they never even got close to the ship
with those weapons they use and their squirrelly aim-reminds me of a drunken
'juicer' door gunner we picked up from the motor pool back in Nam"-"chopper'

Finally, someone had the common sense to cash in AND solve a major problem.
These folks deserve a medal!
