Thanks for the welcome … pirates…pirates… fear fear… plan for it and hope you never have to put the plan into action… we have rigged for pirates going through the Malacca straits many times…used to run Borneo and Sumatra to Japan. For the most part don’t be an easy target you never have a problem.
Montserrat…..Yes 19 people died in a pyroclastic flow. Yes the capital got buried. Nobody believe the volcanologist when he warned about two years b4 it happened…. but about 3 years ago he came out with a statement that from all indications to him its go e dormant and the last time it was dormant was for 400 years. After this statement came out real estate prices popped 100k.
On another post I told that the northern part of the island was never in any danger except for washing if the wind happened to blow that way.
An island with low crime and a population of between 4 and 5 thousand… growing season all year round .. fish,goats chickens, cattle sheep may have a hard time too but with some preparation…bet ya it will be a good retirement and buyout location.
Live life… get knowledge… then make informed decisions. Action not just words…
