DC Sailing Community use only. Not for resale. 1 Observations of the Southern Indian Ocean Piracy and Armed Robbery General information The British Maritime and Coastguard Agency has brought to the attention of shipowners, masters and crews, the risk of acts of piracy on the high seas or armed robbery against ships at anchor, off ports or when underway through the territorial waters of certain coastal states. The UKMTO (United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations) has established a designated Voluntary Reporting Area (VRA) covering all the waters of Red Sea, Gulf of Oman, Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean S of Suez and Straits of Hormuz to 10°S and 78°E. The High Risk Area (HRA) is an area within the UKMTO VRA where it is considered there is a higher risk of piracy and within which self-protective measures are most likely to be required. The high risk area is bounded by: ● Parallel 15°N in the Red Sea. ● The territorial waters off the coast of E Africa at latitude 05°S. Then to positions: ○ 10°00.OON 60°00.00E. ○ 00°00.OON 55°00.00E. ○ 14°00.OON 60°00.00E. ● Then a bearing 310° to the territorial waters of the Arabian Peninsula. Note that our sailing grounds within the Inner Seychelles Island Group do not fall within the above boundary coordinates and are not considered at risk from piracy.

  • Seychelles 1 Introduction
    Seychelles 1 Introduction The Republic of Seychelles is an island nation off the east coast of Africa with a small population of just over 98 000 people, approximately 56% of whom live in an urban environment.1 Traders from the Persian Gulf have known the islands for centuries; however, the first recorded landing on the then-uninhabited islands was made by the British East India Company in 1609. France annexed the islands in 1756. Following a war between France and the United Kingdom, the islands were surrendered and officially ceded to the British by the Treaty of Paris in 1814. Seychelles became an official Crown Colony in 1903, having been a dependency of Mauritius until that time. In 1975, Seychelles became self-governing, and a coali- tion government was formed with President James R Mancham as president and France-Albert René as the vice-president. Seychelles was granted independence in 1976. In 1977, France-Albert René came to power as president in a coup d’état led by the Seychelles People’s United Party (renamed United Seychelles in 2018) and remained in power under the 1979 constitution which provided for a one- party state. Seychelles enacted a new constitution and held democratic elections in 1993,2 part of a wave of democratisation that swept the continent in the early to mid-1990s. In October 2020, Seychelles saw the first democratic handover of power from one ruling party to another since independence. The ruling United Seychelles party was defeated in the national election by the opposition party, Linyon Demokratik Seselwa,3 and Wavel Ramkalawan was sworn in as president on 26 October 2020.4 Seychelles is currently ranked 43rd in the world human capital index.
