    If I was to buy a cruise ship, kit it out with a casino, a highly regulated brothel, a drugs and alcohol bar, park it in international waters and ferry people out and back for dastardly days of debauchery and decadence - would I be breaking any laws?

    Would you support my coke and hookers cruise ship? 80 votes

    Hell yeah, where can I get tickets?

    i dont think you are breaking any laws but police will soon find out and will catch you bringing drugs to the boat at somestage and charge you with that.

    The drugs have to be brought to the ship so they would just catch you bring them in that direction but while still in irish/english/whatever waters

    The boat will be under the jurisdiction of whatever country it is registered in.

    Haven't thought that far ahead yet but now that you mention it...

    As it will be in international waters there better be a barn yard swingers theme going on. Mmm bestiality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,017 ✭✭✭The_Thing


    The OP's idea is not as far fetched as it might sound because I actually know an English man who once had his own building company which he sold, with the proceeds he built a yacht, and after it was finished he often hired it out to the local girls to entertain their clients in international waters. All was going well until sex parties in international waters became sex parties on the quay side and he had to call it a day when the locals complained.

    I'm thinking of The Boat That Rocked but R rated. Can we do pirate radio while we're at it? Please.

    Where to is right, you have to register your ship under a countries flag, you must get written permission to do so from the country in question and register the vessle with them. Once in international waters your governed under that countries laws. Its up to you what countries flag you want to be under and then seek their permission.
