Luxury yachts in Russia are offering pirate hunting cruises in the dangerous waters off the coast of Somalia with the hope of being attacked.

Passengers pay about $5,000 to patrol and can pay an extra $7.50 a day to receive an AK-47 machine gun for protection and about $10 for 100 rounds of ammo.

The yachts travel from Djibouti to Mombasa in Kenya and deliberately cruise close to the coast at a speed of about five nautical miles hoping to attract pirates.

Could we get a group rate?

Is this actually for real this time? I remember a couple of months ago when the whole Somali pirate thing was so in-our-face there was a joke going around about cruises running past the Somali coast to do a little hunting.
