Cheese always the Cheese. I love the question that goes to the far side of the word anything.

We have in fact not more than 2 hours ago we just took on a whole new set of security screens which are basically barbed wire mesh to put up around entire open deck. We also have a security team who we picked up this morning and have constant watches out of each bridge wing to look out. We have a citadel for if we are boarded which ha provisions enough for 15 days. Emergency satalite phones, large drums to block security doors. This company had a ship hijacked last year which they got back 48 hours later crew unharmed although a little shaken.

Some ships can carry weapons but it is not advisable as it makes the pirates more likely to harm the crew.

That is a toss up between joining my first ever ship and trying to fix a broken anchor winch on the forward deck in less than ideal conditions as it was a rush job i.e. do it now or we are in the shit. There are a lot of things that happen to remind you to be careful now and then like carrying something with both hands and the ship gives you just a nudge into the nearest bulkhead to remind you to wake up.
