I agree with link #2... Weather Underground. They have some powerful charts that are easy to use.

The best part of the story..."He (the third engineer) then entered the engineroom alone, with a damp cloth over his face."

"The 500ft vessel can also make itself appear as small as a fishing boat to enemy radar," well considering that I have all those small idiots tuned out of my 3cm radar... Id' say this thing is pretty danm stealth!

MACK,
Idiot because I believe you should barrier cool and let a fire burn itself out WITHOUT putting people in the space?!?
OR am I an idiot because I think you need to improvise to get the job done like these people clearly did?!?

I'm not sure what good an "Artful" blogger is on a maritime site. Maybe "thoughtful" blogger is a better title since you're right on the mark with this one.
ERroomer your new title is "idiot"

Funny this very question is being discussed on the History Channel as I write this. Here's some of the "expert's" opinions:
Pros:
*It's a historic right
*Companies can afford larger, more powerful guns than pirates
Cons:
*Guns can't be used on tankers or LNG ships...there not intrinsically safe! (I'm not joking this was really brought up)
*Mariners are likely to freeze when face to face with a pirate isnce they have no experience killing people, the priate won't
Now their discussing the Carnival cruise story Bill linked to. 3 passengers said they wish they had guns with them. There's the sonic gun looks neat!! (commercial break)
