About to ship out with a hold full of rum or sugar or microchips? Well, don't set sail without you read the IMB's weekly pirate activity report ! And if you are a pirate yourself, always remember that using a tugboat as your flagship with inspire neither terror in your victims, nor bloodthirstiness in your crew.

My own personal favorite: "Ship's anti-piracy patrol withdrew into accommodation for own safety."
Good book recommendation: The Outlaw Sea by William Langewiesche
