Hello guys and gurus alike! I was wondering if I may ask a few ?'s about sailing. I am new to the sport and my wife and I are thinking of buying a 43' catamaran. I know some of the ?'s I may ask may sound dumb to most, but truely I am a newbie here so bare with me ok!!!!
I was told that it was dangerous to sail in the caribbean because the people will stop at nothing to rob you. Are there any truth in this? I would love to just go on a sailboat, but I am scared to bring my wife and family with me if this type of violence exists. Has anyone ever had problems with this? Also say someone starts to approach your boat, what can be done? I dunno about carrying firearms, but any advice will be greatly appreciated!!!!!
