I just found the old webpages where amateurs put together all the known info on terrorist threats, and the page for Eyl...

panoramic photos of Eyl beach

video walking tour of Eyl town
Town Of Eyl Somalia Walking Around the Town 1 - CNN iReport

There is a real time piracy tracking service ... if you need inspiration .. read how the pirates are attempting the shipjackings:
Live Piracy Report

And then the icc-ccs.org has this official maritime warning for the Gulf of Aden:

Gulf of Aden:
Somali pirates are attacking vessels in the northern Somali coast in the Gulf of Aden. These pirates are firing automatic weapons and Rocket Propelled Grenades (RPG) in an attempt to board and hijack vessels. Once the attack is successful and the vessel hijacked, the pirates sail the vessel to the Somali coast and thereafter demand a ransom for the safe release of the vessel and crew. All vessels transiting the area are advised to take additional precautionary measures and maintain strict 24 hours visual and radar anti piracy watch using all available means. Watch keeping crews should look out for small suspicious boats converging to own vessel. Early sightings/detection and accurate assessment will allow Master to increase speed and take evasive manoeuvres to escape from pirates and at the same time request for assistance from various Authorities/Agencies including the IMB PRC.

Since 1 February 2009, MSCHOA (MSC(HOA) - Welcome) has established the Internationally Recommended Transit Corridor (IRTC). Military assets (Naval and Air) will be strategically deployed within the area to best provide protection and support to merchant ships.

Masters using the IRTC are not relieved of their obligation and should continue to maintain a strict 24 hour lookout using all available means to get an early warning of an approaching threat. Some vessels have been attacked/hijacked in the corridor.

Ships/Owners are advised to register their details on the MSCHOA website MSC(HOA) - Welcome and obtain further information regarding the close support protection details for ships transiting the Gulf of Aden. Ships are encouraged to conduct their passage through the Internationally Recognised Transit Corridor (IRTC) in groups based on their transit speed.

-----------
Blackwater (now known as Xe) bought and retrofitted a ship to be a pirate hunting vessel... however no country or corporation was willing to fund anti-piracy privateers, so Blackwater is selling the boat, ... here is the official listing on yachtworld .. with lots of photos to give you some inspiration on the interior of your ships....

I like how it's got a mound of coal towards the end of the video, instead of just an empty room.

Goldeneye Source is still being developed, although people only play it immediately after each release.
