I think this settles the ongoing skiff/dinghy argument quite conclusively.

I quote from the Times, 'HMS Cumberland, on anti-piracy patrol as part of a Nato maritime force, detected the dhow which was towing a skiff'

Yes, because you'd have been easily able to board their RIB on which several members of the team would have remained, with the other RIB holding off as security, and the chopper overhead. It would have been very easy to steal it, clearly.


You obviously haven't seen my recently filmed exploits, where I gave a master class in this very ingenious piratey manoeuvre.
