Customer Testimonials

"Six attacks in 4 days were more than I expected. I bagged three pirates, My wife nailed two, and my 12-year old Grandson sank two boats with the mini-gun. This wonderful cruise was fun for the whole family" -- Fred D., Cincinnati, OH

"Pirates 0, Passengers 32! Well worth the trip! Can't recommend it highly enough!" -- Ben L., Bethesda, MD

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! Twin mounted mini-guns are available for rental at only $450.00 per 30 seconds of sustained fire!

Additional Cruise Line Services

Need a spotter? Our professional crew members can double as spotters for only $30/hour. (spotting scope included, but gratuities are not) Also included: Free complimentary night vision equipment - all throughout the night. Coffee, pastries and snacks are always available on the Main deck from 7pm until 6am. Our deluxe package comes complete with gourmet meals and all rooms offer a mini-bar.

OUR SATISFACTION GUARANTEE!

We guarantee you will experience at least two hijacking attempts by pirates or you'll receive an instant $1,000 refund upon arrival in Mombasa. How can we make that guarantee? We operate at 5 knots just beyond 12 nautical miles off the coast of Somalia, thus in international waters where pirates have no rights whatever. In fact, we make three passes through the area's most treacherous waters to ensure maximum visibility by Somali mother ships. We repeat this for five days, making three complete passes past the entire Somali Coast. At night, the boat is fully lit and bottle rockets are shot every five minutes, with loud disco music directionally beamed shore side to attract maximum attention.

ACT NOW!

Cabin space is limited so you need to respond quickly. Reserve your package Before May 31st and get a great bonus - 100 rounds of free tracer ammo in the caliber of your choice! So sign up for The Ultimate Somali Coast Adventure Cruise now!

BUT THERE'S EVEN MORE!

Reserve Now - and be automatically entered to win a 5 minute time slot on the Captain's own Twin Browning 50 Caliber M2HB installation! "I haven't had this much fun since flying choppers in 'Nam." Don't worry about getting shot by pirates... they never even got close to the ship with the crap they shoot and their lousy aim... "Come on board and bag your own clutch of genuine Somali pirates!"
