This was a fishing boat apparently way outside of areas normally sailed by yachts. I have seen very few reports lately of incidents relating to yachts. We intend to go down the Red sea/Gulf of Aden in the near future so I have been following noonsite regularly which seems to have the best coverage. They only report two incidents in the last half year, both off the coast of Somalia/Eritrea which would not be the route I would follow anyway. Recommended route would be to keep closer to the Aden side in the Gulf of Aden.

Anybody knows any better site than Noonsite Piracy for piracy reports?
