Few points here. The carribean doesn't report the majority of its crime, its much less safe than people know. They hide crime to keep tourism heavy. Seems odd you say its safe but strip the deck lol. I get your point though. Most local smaller areas are safer. There are countries that allow being armed. My advice to sailors is do research, plan, know before you go! If world sailing, be equipped with backup everything, rescue, power, water, food, everything back up. Stay away from dangerous areas noted for pirates and heavy crime, no sense in asking for trouble when there are 1000s of places with none. I carry around US only. Outside of that there are other options, spear guns etc. Be friendly to locals immediately!!! Great vid!

If you carry a gun to SE Asia then honestly be prepared for a long stay in a local prison or pay a huge fine / bribe to your local friendly police man. DON'T do it! Leave guns at home. If it is that bad why go there in the first place?

I have lived in Thailand and a lot of SE Asia for over 10 years and it is way safer than living in the UK!. If you have a gun or knife etc then be prepared to use it first. To have a brain is a big advantage over having a gun etc.

Before there was guns, they tried to ban swords.

If you’re dumb enough to travel unarmed there’s not much help I can offer you as you’re clearly one of the “It will never happen to me” crowd.

Great video, and sober take. Lots of disappointing comments of a nature Lady K Sailing was specifically hoping to avoid. The first step should always be risk assessment, and Americans in particular have difficulty grasping that most of the world out there is a lot safer than they imagine. Regardless of how one feels about owning a firearm in a country where it is legal, the considerations of travelling to other countries run deep and will not be served by knee-jerking to one's default Stateside take on the matter. Just soberly assess whether your gun is most likely to be a solution or create bigger problems than you would likely ever encounter, when you take it to a place with completely different circumstances, people, customs (both in terms of customary behavior and border control, LOL). This one is difficult for Americans, because we tend to believe we know better especially when it comes to entrenched politicized issues. Leave the politics behind and be practical about the fact that 99 times out of 100, if there's a place you actually might need a gun, you probably simply shouldn't cruise there. Responsible gun owners know that the best policy is to avoid ever having to use one's firearm in a confrontation. Avoidance starts with avoiding those situations. So talk to people from the places you plan to visit. And listen to what they tell you.

I’m seeing this three years after the initial posting as I am considering getting back into sailing. As a “Gun Owner” the context of this video is spot on. Owning/possessing a firearm for self protection is a very different animal from general gun ownership. Mistakes are often permanent as are the consequences. There can be no place for misplaced bravado in your decision. Great video!

My wife's uncle woke up in his boat in South America with a knife at his throat.
He had two guns on his boat. Coast guard boarded and asked about guns. He said yes. Arrested, jailed. A retired judge took the case. Got off because this was his home, retired. But kept his guns! Between NJ & Pa fight over whose state he was in. Crazy!

Just take half dozen flair guns, if you have ever had a flair pointed at you in close range; you will get the point!!
