Re Romans new coracle; Maurice and Chris at the Times sure didn't do their homework.(typical) The statement, "Under maritime law, nonnaval ships are banned from carrying firearms." is flat out untrue. Check here, http://www.mast-yacht.co.uk/firearms.asp I've carried arms on my sailboat and into foreign ports many times. In some ports you must bring the arms ashore and have them secured with Customs and retrieve them on departure.

God bless Ted and his lost shipmates on the Hood. His generation understood the cost of freedom, honor for country and the love of God.

How I wish those values were more present today.
