| Nov. 2008 the Nautica was sailing from Safaga, Egypt to Salah, Oman on the Maritime Safety Protection Area. At approximately 9:28 AM (UTC+3) the ship encountered Somalian pirates. Captain Jurica Brajcic ordered the ship to take evasive manoeuvres and to sail away at flank speed. The Nautica was able to outrun her attackers, although the ship was fired at eight times. None of the 684 passengers or 400 crew onboard were injured in the attack. |
