Are we about to be Attacked by PIRATES? | S04E01

We’ve known for a long time that the most dangerous waters for piracy in the Caribbean are through the Nicaraguan banks. Every year we hear accounts of yachts being attacked and boarded by pirates in this area.

How can we know that piracy is a real threat in this region but still make the decision to sail through these dangerous waters? In this episode, in order to get to Panama before crossing the Pacific, we are forced to sail through the Nicaraguan banks and have some terrifying moments of our own.

Pirates, piracy, weapons & guns! Sailing Q&A 1

How do you defend against pirates? And what weapons do we carry, if any? Is it OK to have guns on board? Piracy is one of the top subjects we get asked about.

In this clip we discuss piracy and our experience of it, and offer some advice on how to limit the risks. We also talk about weapons and whether you should arm yourself when sailing in high risk areas.

A couple of notes on the clip: Jamie refers to a boat in the Andaman Sea, but he meant the Arabian Sea (between Oman and India); and Liz said we hugged the east coast of the Red Sea when she meant the west coast. Other than that, this Q&A session has a number of pointers that may help other yachties who are worried about piracy on the high seas. Please do leave your comments and questions below and we'll do our best to answer them. Enjoy!

PIRACY at Anchor... Are we in DANGER? S04E39

Even though it’s statistically unlikely to experience piracy at anchor or to be held up at gunpoint on our sailboat, crime against sailors is a reality and does happen to unlucky sailors all around the world. As we explore new places, how do we decide who to trust? How do we protect ourselves, and how do we deal with the underlying fear of knowing that we’re at the mercy of strangers? Could chasing this dream of sailing around the world actually become the biggest mistake of our lives?

When You Tell a Pakistani You're from India ☠️

This is what happened when I told a Pakistani in Lahore that I live in Delhi and my wife is Indian. I survived the encounter ???? #BajrangiBhaijaan2. PS. The dude was joking. It's a bit of Punjabi humour. You can watch these guys chatting with me in The Food Courts of a Pakistani Electronics Market ????

Don't miss me saying Jai Hind in Pakistan

Boarded at Sea! Are they PIRATES? We sail too close to the coast of Venezuela (EP 12)

On our way from Grenada to Curaçao, we decided it would be a fantastic idea to visit the Venezuelan islands of Los Aves. We were aware of that the country is in a state of economic collapse, leading to increase crime corruption and piracy, opening up a risk for sailors like us.

But surely no pirates would venture as far as these remote, seemingly insignificant islands? As we sailed past, we saw the unmistakable shape of a few small, open boats, and decided we'd better not stop. As the islands faded into the distance, and we felt like we had escaped, some obscure Spanish rang out on the VHF.

We looked behind us to see a small open boat, four men, and the unmistakable silhouette of an AK47.

I said JAI HIND in PAKISTAN ????

A Pakistani in Lahore started trying to troll India, but I got the last laugh ???? Jai Hind ????????.

For those who don't know, Jai Hind (जय हिन्द) means Long live India. It's a patriotic and victorious saying in Hindi. Pakistanis have their own saying too: Pakistan Zindabad (پاکستان زِنده باد‎) which means Long live Pakistan.

Taken from Inside Lahore's Burnt Down Electronics Market

What is The tea is fantastic?

For my foreign audience, I'll explain the the tea is fantastic reference for you. I too had no idea until a few months back.

Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman VrC is an Indian Air Force fighter pilot who, during the 2019 India–Pakistan standoff, was held captive in Pakistan for 60 hours after his aircraft was shot down in an aerial dogfight.

During this time he was filmed by the Pakistan Army complementing the tea he was drinking. That video was then released to the media. He says in the video, The tea is fantastic. That video is available here

So that's where this reference comes from. It's now used to troll Indians online mainly. So hence my replies, and in the end, I just gave him a Jai Hind Long Live India.

PIRATES! Are we about to get ATTACKED? | Sailing Indonesia, Ep 149

At 3 in the morning whilst at sea a vessel charges at us... Pirates? What do you do?

In this episode of Sailing Nandji, we are faced with every sailors worst nightmare. We are under sail on passage miles off the coast when a vessel charges straight at us. We gybe, change course and the vessel does the same thing and continually charges straight at us... What do you do? Pirates?

We have been sailing in Indonesian waters for the past 5 months and have now over the last 2 years sailed all the way through the Indonesian islands from East to West. We have not feared pirate attack, but should we have?

At the end of the last episode whilst happily sailing at 4 knots a boat charges at us and puts us under their spot light. What do we do? Lets discuss this situation and we would love to hear what you would do if in the same situation...

With no sailing experience, we bought a yacht, got it blue water cruising ready and set off sailing to the Pacific! We have since cruised through New Caledonia, Vanuatu, the Solomon islands, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and then onto the boat yard in Malaysia to prepare for the years to come. With a new engine, we continued onto Thailand, then back down into Indonesia and specifically West Sumatra where we are living the island life and chasing the surf. With our Sailing plans changing, we are returning to Thailand in the coming months and then taking the northern route of the Indian Ocean to the Andaman islands and onto Sri Lanka before heading south to Chagos and across the Indian Ocean once cyclone season has finished and the trades begin again! The adventure is just beginning!

We departed the east coast of Australia in July 2017 and have since sailed over 10000nm. We have explored some amazing countries and met some beautiful people along the way. We have experienced so many different and diverse cultures, dived pristine reefs, surfed solo in the middle of nowhere, spent weeks at sea, dealt with storms, big waves, strong winds and had the time of our lives doing it! The adventure is just beginning as we sail West with the trades around the World!

Sailing 1000 Miles to Avoid PIRATE Infested Waters, Our Longest and HARDEST Passage Yet | Episode 47

We are hoping to sail to Jamaica to join our friends, but we have a HUGE passage in front of us with numerous challenges, pirates only being one of them!!


We need to fight strong currents, unfavorable winds, numerous shoals and shallow areas, and the known PIRATE WATERS around Nicaragua. We battle with a little sea sickness, low sleep and low food intake while encountering storms, super rough seas, all while under the treat of nearing known pirate waters which have claimed their fair share of yachts in recent years.
