gun boat diplomacy

Post by Grizz »

seeing how iran is making oliar look exactly like what he looks like, I thought I would apply for a Letter of Marque and venture off in the quest for legal quarry.

Now before anyone gets snarky, consider that the boat is 27 feet long with an 8' beam and is close to the size America's first Navy sent to deal with the Barbary pirates.

This make the main gun something to be reckoned with, the 227mm tungsten tipped he projectile able to sink anything that crosses her T.

I've always thought building a "cruise ship" Q ship and selling "cruises" off the Somali Coast to like minded people would make for an interesting bit of maritime employment.

The US has never abolished Letters of Marque BTW... They haven't issued any for a 150 years or so, but a proper POTUS could slip a few under the table...
