In attack groups spread amongst several small and speedy skiffs, Boyah and his men approached their target on all sides, swarming like a water-borne wolf pack. They brandished their weapons in an attempt to frighten the ship's crew into stopping, and even fired into the air. If these scare tactics did not work, and if the target ship was capable of outperforming their outboard motors, the chase ended there. But if they managed to pull even with their target, they tossed hooked rope ladders onto the decks and boarded the ship. Instances of the crew fighting back were rare, and rarely effective, and the whole process, from spotting to capturing, took at most thirty minutes. Boyah guessed that only 20 per cent to 30 per cent of attempted hijackings met with success, for which he blamed speedy prey, technical problems, and foreign naval or domestic intervention. The captured ship was then steered to a friendly port – in Boyah's case, Eyl – where guards and interpreters were brought from the shore to look after the hostages during the ransom negotiation. Once the ransom was secured – often routed through banks in London and Dubai and parachuted like a special-delivery care package directly onto the deck of the ship – it was split amongst all the concerned parties. Half the money went to the attackers, the men who actually captured the ship. A third went to the operation’s investors: those who fronted the money for the ships, fuel, tracking equipment, and weapons. The remaining sixth went to everyone else: the guards ferried from shore to watch over the hostage crew, the suppliers of food and water, the translators (occasionally high school students on their summer break), and even the poor and disabled in the local community, who received some as charity. Such largesse, Boyah told me, had made his merry band into Robin Hood figures amongst the residents of Eyl.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jay Bahadur" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jay-bahadur/he-claimed-to-employ-different-tactics-for-different-ships-but-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/447/jay-bahadur-66533_goals_he-claimed-to-employ-different-tactics-f_945418.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/447/jay-bahadur-66533_goals_he-claimed-to-employ-different-tactics-f_945418.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/447/jay-bahadur-66533_goals_he-claimed-to-employ-different-tactics-f_945418.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“He claimed to employ different tactics for different ships, but the basic strategy was crude in its…” — Jay Bahadur", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“Piracy is not so much organized crime as it is a business, characterized by extremely efficient capital flows, low start-up costs, and few entry barriers.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Jay Bahadur" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/jay-bahadur/piracy-is-not-so-much-organized-crime-as-it-is-a-business/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f4a/jay-bahadur-66533_business_piracy-is-not-so-much-organized-crime-as_2334560.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f4a/jay-bahadur-66533_business_piracy-is-not-so-much-organized-crime-as_2334560.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/f4a/jay-bahadur-66533_business_piracy-is-not-so-much-organized-crime-as_2334560.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Piracy is not so much organized crime as it is a business, characterized by extremely efficient capital…” — Jay Bahadur", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jay-bahadur/#person", "name": "Jay Bahadur", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/author/jay-bahadur/", "description": "Canadian photographer... | Jay Bahadur is a Canadian journalist and author.
