Guns on Boats
I'm looking for info about people that carry guns on boats. More importantly, anyone that's ever needed to show a gun or use a gun to protect thier family and vessel from intruders.
This is probably more of a cruiser/yacht type of issue but OSO seems to hold every answer...so who do you know?
Any stories of piracy would be great.

Ron, Try a search on the "Ask The Captain" section of BoaterEd.com. I know that I've seen the subject there a couple of times.

Re: Guns on Boats
Had a guy pull a gun on a water patrol officer while he was sleeping on his boat, the patol officer boarded his boat he pulled a gun on him, of coarse a yelling match insued the guy who pulled the gun knew all the laws his father was a officer long story short the officer let him go. I can put you in contact with him if you would like.

I guess your signature means no motors yet?
