I, as a cruise patron, am definatly interested in safeguards/etc in preventing unauthorized boarding. The water cannon idea is a good one! Wow!! I can see this happening. In the end, I think it best to have no weapons on board. I am curious though,, E.g. if a 'pirate' group does, indeed, get close enough,, how would they scale the sides of the ship? What is there potential planning for this? IF!!! They were to get this close and, indeed, begin their attempt to scale/penetrate the hull, I wonder what the capabilities of the crew of the attacked vessel are?!?! Are ther,, will there be now?! Maritime marshalls on board?

What can we expect? What is in place to in fact reassure us that we are as safe as can be?!?!
