Absolutely 100% right. However, it is not really practical given the legal troubles that would ensue to bring enough firepower to make it a much safer trip. So that just leaves staying away. Which could mean not going in the first place. > > As far as I am concerned, the Indian Ocean should be cruiser boycotted > and the countries surrounding it made abundantly aware that the > cruising community and thier money will return when it gets safer. > The whole carribean is a closer playground in any case. But the problem is then how to get around Africa. Its a long and sometimes 'wooly' way around the Cape. Maybe if one was to follow the coast as they did but keep going south and then come north it might lessen the risk while not adding nearly the distance as rounding the Cape would. As far as the Carib. yeah it's nice, but the world has so much more to offer than just that.-Ken _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://www.liveaboardnow.org/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardnow.org/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
