Excuse me for my nerdieness . . .
but I believe the correct term should be "pirated ships" or "pirate's ship" . . . since pirates had no legal claims to the ships or "built" their own vessels . . . The only exception might refer to "pirate radio" . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_radio . . . ships that were used as broadcast radio stations from international waters . . . . . . in an attempt to avoid government regulation by organizations such as the . . . Ofcom (Broadcast Standards Commission - United Kingdom) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcasting_Standards_Commission FCC (Federal Communications Comission) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fcc |
