After the oil tanker left the dangerous sea and got in touch with the transfer docked on the high seas, the oil tanker stopped and waited for the dinghy that was dropped on the transfer ship to take the six of them to the transfer ship.
The so-called transit ship is also a helpless choice. The reason why the crew on the merchant ship has no ability to resist when facing pirates, except that the merchant ship ’s crew is only a civilian population, the main reason is that it is restricted by international conventions. There must be no weapons on the merchant ship.
If you have been driving on the high seas, even if you have missiles and cannons installed on the cargo ship, it will be left unattended, but if you are found in a port in another country, it will be in trouble if someone is found to have weapons on the ship. The same is true for armed escorts. On the high seas, armed guards can use whatever weapons they want, but they ca n’t bring weapons to shore or enter a country ’s territorial waters. As for the port, let alone mention it.
If you do n’t plan to abide by the law, it ’s okay to bring brushes without weapons. However, after all, armed at sea is still a legal and highly regarded occupation, so armed escorts at sea must also be bound by law and cannot carry guns ashore. In order to solve this problem, The transit ship came into being.
Transit ships are docked on the high seas and are privately operated. When armed escorts board and disembark commercial ships, they are on the high seas close to the main channel. Merchant ships need only be close to the transfer ship to pick up the armed escorts, instead of having to let the armed escorts up and down the port Merchant ship.
The existence of the transit ship not only avoids the legal problems, but the key is also more convenient. The transit ship docks in the sea area that will not be threatened by pirates. As long as there is no threat, the merchant ship will put down the armed escort. There is no need to bring armed escorts all the way to the destination port.
Their transfer ship was modified by an old cruise ship with a displacement of 2,000 tons. After contacting the transit ship. The transfer ship sent a small boat to pick them up and return to the transfer ship.
Everything went smoothly. I said goodbye to the tanker and boarded the dinghy. It was over three o'clock in the morning. After Gao Yang boarded the transit ship from the special ramp, he just walked to the deck but listened. A man shouted: "You are finally back. According to the time I expected, you should have returned two hours ago. Did you have any trouble?"
The speaker was a middle-aged man in his forties, named Antoncell Kuta, a Scottish-American, and a partner who promoted them.
Antoncel has always been a first officer from a sailor, and then finally became the captain. He is not familiar with everything at sea, but just completed an important goal of his life in Antoncel. Finally became the captain, but not more than two years. Antoncell resigned from a long-term shipping company.
The reason why he refused to be the captain again was that Anton Celer encountered a pirate in the Gulf of Aden, and was almost with the pirate taking the boat together.
At that time, there were also armed guards on Antoncel ’s ship, but the situation when he met the pirates was a little different. At least more than twenty pirate boats surrounded his ship. The pirates were about to board the ship. The four armed escorts on board saw that there were many pirates, and they planned to surrender. Anyway, the pirates of Somalia are also very principled. That is, if they surrender, even if they surrender, the crew will not be in danger. And they These security personnel are most likely to be directly returned by the pirates, so the four security personnel only fired a few shots. After the pirates' random gun fire, the four security guards ceased fire and waited for the pirates to board the ship.
Fortunately, at a critical moment, a helicopter sent by a warship relieved Anton Celer ’s ship, so that Anton Celer did not fall into the hands of the pirate, and Anton Celer, who was frightened and stimulated, also moved from him. Seeing business opportunities in her experience, she made up her mind to change immediately.
Antoncel, who is no longer a captain, decided to set up a maritime security company. Although he is a layman in the industry of security and defense, Antoncel also has his own advantages. He has run a boat for a lifetime, but the people he knows are not Less, it is easy to get the business, even if he can only take the business of the shipping company he used to work for, it is enough to make him make a lot of money.
Antoncel did not have his own manpower, nor did he understand the doorway of security defense, but he knew Donny Jr.'s father, and then Antoncel naturally hooked Donny Jr. Successfully completed, the six of them were promoted to become Antoncell's collaborators.
Antoncel is responsible for pulling business, and is responsible for promoting their life and rest on the transit ship, and they are responsible for the military force. As for the money earned, they are divided equally, and then each give 5% of the total to Xiao Tang Nepali will do.
Gao Yang and Anton Celer both gave 5% of the money to Downey Jr. because the security company established in Anton Celer City was not properly registered and did not join the international organization Maritime Industry Security Association ( ), To put it bluntly is to do the work of mercenaries in the name of a maritime security company. Only in this way can it not be restricted by law or the international code of conduct for private security service providers (), otherwise, Anton Sai When he was working, he could not make a commitment to absolutely guarantee the safety of merchant ships.
Gao Yang and they agreed with Downey Jr., as long as Downey Jr. found a task for them, they would have to pay 5% of Downey Jr., and Anton Celer had to transfer the money to his because of the company ’s illegality. On the account, Downey Jr. was required to launder the money for him, so Antoncell also needed to give Downey Jr. 5% of the money.
The cooperation with Antoncell is still very pleasant. Antoncell is really good. Unlike the captain of the ordinary seafarer who is always full of swearing, he ca n’t live without the wine. On the contrary, Antoncell ’s face Always smile, take good care of them, as long as they come back from the task, no matter what time, you will always see Antoncell waiting to greet them, only see a few of them return home safely, Antonsai Only then can you rest assured.
Gao Yang smiled at Antoncell and said, "We have encountered a little trouble, not even a trouble ~ EbookFREE.me ~ We were scared away when we encountered some unsightly pirates."
Anton Celer looked at the group of people standing behind Gao Yang and confirmed that no one was injured before Anton Celer nodded and said, "No one is injured, just like this next time, call me Report a safe call. "
At this time, Cui Bo Cui Bo said with a grin: "Captain, don't worry about us, we are not children, you are not a complaint looking forward to her husband coming home, listen to me, don't stay up all night waiting for us next time."
Antoncell smiled bitterly: "I have been a first officer for too many years. This is a position that I have to worry about. Without arranging my responsible work, I can't sleep at all. I am afraid that my habit will be changed in a while. No, okay, now I ask if the pirates you encountered are a group of guys who call themselves Skeleton Gang. You have left this transit ship for a few days, and these days, the transit ship here I've been talking about this suddenly emerged Skeleton Gang. I listen to the meaning of the British guys. They seem to be making big moves. "(To be continued ...)
