If this is a wet dream thread then careless minigun for easy clean up. If this is real world then depending on the countries we frequent and the laws involved keeping a small storage account with a floating armory is a good idea. Shot gun laws change more than rifles so a manual action kit and some spare parts makes a good case for an ar or ak variant. Pistols are a no go, and explosives are a pain for every country with rules for them.

That's some huge ocean going yacht you got there. These luxury yachts are usually very fast. All you need to do is run away to open ocean.

3 inch gun in the bow, dual mounted M2's on either side, and AR-10's if they're brave enough to keep coming.

>>31009186
Due to the fact that you could at any point be forced to toss your gear overboard due to entering national waters I would bring the cheapest stuff possible.

Highpoints and the cheapest ar15s I could custom build with a few thousand rounds for each.

Civilian (no US Class 3): .30 TrackingPoint. Why? Because it's hard to hit people in a boat bobbing through the waves from another boat with a non-stabilized weapon, especially when both are doing over 10kts. Having a gun that does all of the hard work for you is nice.

Budget: .30 MMG (M-60, M-240, something like that).

Premium: CROWS-type mounts (fore and aft) with 40mm AGLs. 1-2 hits should disable a pirate skiff and everyone in it.

Extravagant: As premium, but add Spikes.

Ludicrous: Replace the Spikes with Javelins.

>>31009186
I was actually thinking about this today. How do people who own super yachts, 200ft+ shit make sure it's secure say at night when most of the guests/crew are sleeping. Other than radar what can you do? Seems at port you'd have to declare or risk getting found out and jailed. The forums I looked at, mostly Aussies/Euros who said no guns and only Americans inquire about such things, I kek'd.

>>1 guy on crowsnest with a .50 caliber rifle
I sincerely hope you're not talking about using any form of scoped sniper style rifle on a moving boat, trying to hit someone who is also on a boat thats moving

>>31011834
Ok that's why you see those dickheads on US Navy destroyers with .50 caliber anti-material rifles training to take out pirates.

>>31011801
Replace at least two of those M60s with M242 Bushmasters and you've got yourself your own personal corvette.

>>31011834
Well, that's very doable actually. It's unlikely that the pirates would attempt evasive maneuver until you began firing, the fact the boat you're on is moving is frankly irrelevant as far as ballistics are concerned. The only thing you'd need to account for is wind, distance, and their lateral movement, which since they'll be heading directly towards your boat is less of an issue than one would think.

In fact, I'd say an average skilled shooter would probably be able to get a few rounds on target given these conditions. Someone actually trained in long range marksmanship would have very little issue blowing a skid boat to smithereens with a .50 caliber anti materiel rifle.

Actual guy who has worked maritime security here.

The correct answer is a rusty M16A2 that you constantly and meticulously maintain but it still disintegrates before your eyes every time you go on deck. Then throw it in the ocean before you hit national waters. We take hefty bags and duct tape now to keep our rifles in when on deck.

less-rich fags not spend more for a personal submersible yacht

>>31012165
But they don't have that many missiles.

I mean they are a bit to big for what they are hunting

New idea: How cheap/ small can one possibly make an aircraft carrier, if it only operates Cessna 172s. I mean they have enough payload for rockets and shit, enough to kill a shitty pirate boat, right?

Yachts aren't a juicy target for pirates. Yachts may have rich people, but with wealth comes attention. This then brings bad publicity on governments being unable to protect their waters and leads to the piracy lifestyle being more difficult to live. They mostly target those cargo ships that would rather pay off the pirates to ensure that the cargo reaches its destination on time.

kidnapping a few millionaires thats have lots of money and likely security, is not nearly as profitable and kidnapping 25 blue collar workers and several BILLION dollars worth of loot

>>31012168
Great, now I want a submersible yacht. Saving now so I might be able to afford one in a 1000 yrs.

A cheap AR15 + ammo for general use
A cheap 9mm + ammo as a sidearm
A cheap 12 gauge + soft ammo for use indoors (soft ammo so it doesn't bounce everywhere off the bulkheads etc)

These get thrown overboard when entering national waters.

Possibly also some air rifles and archery gear as that stuff mightn't have to be tossed overboard when entering national waters. This stuff is for use in case I can't find more guns before leaving port.

As a last resport a shitload of small plastic fuel cans, some highly flammable fuel, duct tape and the kind of marine flares which burn out the sides - improvised incediary device. Throw them on the skiffs and laugh as the skinnies burn to death.

>>31012415
Also possibly some sort of laser to blind the fuckers.

>>31011834
Coast Guard have snipers who shoot at boats from muthafucking helicopters.

RPG-7 with lots of extra rockets for it, maybe 1000 will do. Those stupid fuckers won't take my boat without meeting a hail of rockets

most obvious answer

>>31009186

Since the security detail is independent of wider concerns about ammunition logistics, I don't understand why people in this thread are bothering with .308.

AR-10s in .260 Rem and give every fourth man an M240 in .260.

SpecterDR 1.5x:6x all the things.

If we're just expecting to let them close in and burn them down once they try boarding instead of harassing them/driving them off with accurate fire at 600-1200, Mk 18s and Aimpoints are probably fine.

4 M240s (one starboard aft, starboard fore, port aft, port fore, etc) that are kept in locked, extremely secure (but also discreet) storage lockers on deck, with mounts built into the rails of the ship. Your choice of optics as long as they are magnified at least 4x

The idea is that the security crew gets to their gun stations and mounts and mans their guns in under 2 minutes from the alarm being sounded, giving you decent enough firepower to ward off enemy attackers while keeping the Normies from spazzing out from having MGs on the ship in open display.

Arm security crew with MP5s, with red dot/holo sights and flashlights

Have a small team issued NVGs and IR lasers if shit below decks needs serious oper8in

MP5s are all given suppressors

Officers are allowed a side arm of their choice, with the commanding officer on the bridge required to wear his while he is on the bridge

Issue all crew basic plate carrier (black or navy blue), something they can throw on quickly over their polo and be done with it

Many of the finest, cheapest ballistic helmets (again blue or black)

Basic communications (probably already issued, if not then some cheap baeofeng to keep in contact across the ship)

Probably add a fifth MG now that I think about it to fire directly aft of the ship

If possible add a thermal imaging system somewhere on top of the ship where it can see incoming small boats

This is the cheapest way I see of giving your boat some serious security forces

The security forces don't even have to be a separate entity, let's say it's made up of 5 teams of 4, you just have the 4 team leaders on rotating security duty, and make up the rest of the roster from crew members who went through a training course. Offer them slightly increased pay if they qualify for the fast response teams

Also apology for poor English I have not slept in 31 hours

what is dis meltdown. only means more power for rotors, yes? good for ramming puny aluminium boats of capitalist.

also as a full missile load for it would probably atleast quadruple the value of the hunk, you would need to hire some navy to protect your missiles from getting stolen.
