We should identify which ports haves pirates operating out of them, and level them.
Don't forget the financial incentive for anti-piracy. Any ship and cargo recaptured from pirates becomes a Prize ship and the property of the owners, Captain and crew of the ship who recaptures it under Admiralty and Maritime laws. The anti-piracy laws dealing with punishment for piracy are also equally severe.
