Piracy
- Piracy which has been confirmed as piracy specifically involving cruising yachts undertaking passage through the Gulf of Aden has presented a need to avoid the area where most incidents have taken place. Here is a suggested passage plan :-
- Minimum Lights during passage through a 3000 sq. nautical mile area bounded by the coordinates 13° 05' North <> 13° 55' North x 47° 45' East <> 48°45' East. The centre of this "Box" is at 13° 30' North x 48° 15' East, about 80nms South West of Al Mukalla - bearing from Al Mukalla 220° true. Best is an all round white at cockpit level. ie : fishing boat lighting. (watch out for big ships, then decklevel Nav. Lights to emulate fishing boat)
- Passage:- Salalah to Djibouti
- o Leave Salalah - 16° 57' North x 54° 00' East
- 130 nms to 1st waypoint - 15° 00' North x 53° 00' East
o 278 nms to
+ 2nd waypoint - 12° 30' North x 49° 00' East
o 178 nms to
+ 3rd waypoint - 12° 00' North x 46° 00' East
o 60nms to
+ 4th waypoint - 11° 45' North x 45° 00' East
o 118 nms to
+ 5th waypoint - 11° 40' North x 43° 09' East
o 7.5 nms to
+ 6th waypoint - 11° 37' North x 43° 07' East Djibouti Anchorage.
Total 771.5 Nautical Miles.
(If you don't want to go to Djibouti turn right for Aden: 12°44'45.6" North x 44° 58'13" East before you get to the 4th waypoint.)
