notes: According to Bimco, about eight armed pirates boarded a Dutch general cargoship that was berthed at the Moroccan port. The vessels crew managed to apprehend four of the robbers and handed them over to the local police. In stark contrast to some other piracy cases mentioned in Off Course, the Agadir police only took 15 minutes to arrive on the quayside
