    Default Pirate cruise vacation (funny)

    I received this as an e-mail, sorry but I can't furnish the photos also but you can get the idea.



    .ExternalClass #EC_AOLMsgPart_3_972e421d-5fe3-4235-94ea-91e1400a99d2 p{;}I am about to put my deposit down, if anyone else wants to come, let me know...

    Somali Cruise Package



    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




    * AK-47 riffle @ No charge. ammo at 100 rounds of 7.62 com block ball
    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"



    * (Sign me up for that!)



    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'
    Dan ----Toledo USA.

    * "Like ducks in a barrel. This is must do! - Zeke, Minnahaw Springs,
    Kentucky, USA



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