SetSail's Security Links

We don't want to be alarmist about the subject of security, but feel it is best to keep abreast of what is happening. These sites typically have reports of "incidents" around the world.

http://www.yachtpiracy.org/en/index.htm

This is an excellent site on yacht-related piracy attacks. Not a pretty subject, and certainly not one which should put you off of cruising. However, it is an issue better addressed with knowledge.

http://www.iccwbo.org/ccs/imb_piracy/weekly_piracy_report.asp

Weekly update on piracy happenings around the world, also from the International Chamber of Commerce. Includes piracy maps for South America, Africa, the Middle East, South and South East Asia.

http://www.cargolaw.com/presentations_casualties.html

This site contains a wealth of data on piracy - both historic reports as well as current weekly reports. Because the site has a rather odd layout, you'll need to scroll down to see the most interesting info.

http://www.fco.gov.uk/travel

Travel advisories from the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office, covering health and security issues.
