#1 Is it too much to look forward to the day when the RAB forms a Maritime Division?
Other than having to report the time of the wild gunfire as 0300 rather than 3A.M., I think the rest would pretty much remain the same. Except for a decrease in prisoners, they would undoubtedly drown whilst trying to escape.....

#2 I think they're somewhat backwards, sink the pirates and return the ship, then when other pirates use the ship again, the transponder you put in the ship sends a "come get me signal" repeat as needed.

Think of it as chumming.

#3 Oh my. This may even be better than my idea of flamethrowers at the waterline!
