Nobody should be surprised by them failing to proceed or breaking.
They tend to the old and rusty.
Privateers with letters of marque from Ukraine could be interesting though. Take them as prizes, doubling the pressure on that economy.

Three companies control the market for school lunch payments. They take as much as 60 cents out of every dollar poor kids' parents put into the system to the tune of $100m/year. They're literally stealing poor kids' lunch money.

The seas around #Florida and the Caribbean were home to many #pirates and #privateers, especially as Spain tried to return the treasures it took from the Americas back to Europe.
However, instead of using the stolen loot to buy things needed for supply and repair for their ships; legends constantly insist that they #buried their booty on this #island, Little Money Key, or maybe Money Key, or maybe a different island, or maybe any “money” on these keys was a myth to begin with.

Hello everyone. Since I moved servers, time to reintroduce myself.
I’m a research professor at #NUPI (that is the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs) doing research in #InternationalRelations More specifically I tend to focus on #diplomacy #foreignpolicy #HistoricalInternationalRelations #concepts #privateers #thesea #oceans. Which is perhaps just a way of saying that I do research on my many interests and whatever someone is willing to pay me to do research on. 1/2
