On Patrol

The market in anti-piracy patrol vessels is hotting up, and one such ship has even caught the eye of Wired magazine.

“Indian Ocean Explorer 2” started life as a drab 1966 Canadian Coast Guard cutter, but was tricked out to turn it into a fancy charter yacht for diving trips.

Now it’s being marketed as for use as an anti-piracy and mercenary craft. Billed as, “Ideal for use as a Patrol Vessel or an Operation Base Vessel” http://goo.gl/G7fN5
