At 10AM at position 14-26N, 82-11W, approximately 65 miles off the Nicaraguan coast a 25ft launcha with 4 men onboard approached at high speed from the east in a menacing way. ||The captain, prepared with a firearm fired a warning shot as the launcha came within 50 meters. The pirates, aware of the warning shot paused briefly but then displayed machetes and resumed their approach. At the point of having their hands on the rails to begin boarding the captain fired his remaining loaded round very close to the pirate on the tiller. The pirates, apparently reconsidering the risk, departed.|| The yacht continued its passage without further incident.
