I agree there, but the navy would not give you an escort if you sailed through
iceberg filled waters without radar just because you didn't want the expense
of radar, so why should they escort you through pirate infested waters
because you didn't want the expense of private security?
That said, it isn't a strong opinion of mine. Perhaps the navy
is the way to go.
Would it compromise the navy's independence if they offer to protect ships for a price?
