I want to go on record as having actively resisted making the obvious jokes (at first).

Of course, it does bear mentioning that of the two ski boats manned by teenagers that attacked the French command ship 
of the Indian Ocean, one of them got away "because La Somme was busy with the first pirate boat".  What, they didn't 
have a Zodiac that could manage to chase down a home-built fiberglass shell with a badly-tuned Johnson outboard on it?

Let's just be glad the pirates didn't throw a net at the ship, or this story could have had a sad and horrible ending...
