Annex G – Additional Advice for Leisure Craft Including Yachts

 In view of the escalation in pirate attacks in the High Risk Area, the advice is NOT to enter this area.

However a yacht/leisure craft which, despite this advice, decides on such a passage is recommended to make contact in advance with the Naval/Military authorities.

See the MSCHOA (www.MSCHOA.com) and ISAF (International Sailing Federation) websites for the most up to date information on this process. There is also information on the NATO Shipping Centre website (www.shipping.nato.int.)
