Jean-Yves and Bernadette Delane were sailing to France from Australia when they were captured on board their 16-metre French sailing boat Carre d’as in the pirate-ridden waters of the Gulf of Aden on Tuesday.
Well, there you go – avoid the pirate-ridden waters of the Gulf of Aden if you’re rich people on a yacht.
