The vessel observed armed individuals aboard the boat, along with a ladder. The bulk carrier was followed for approximately 20 minutes by the small boat. The captain reported the people in the boat were armed. When the pirates approached, the armed guards on the bulker fired warning shots, forcing the pirates to retreat without retaliating. The bulk carrier continued on its way.
