Epic Walk The Plank Fail

US Merchant Marines 1, Somali Pirates, 0.
A U.S. official says the crew of an American-flagged vessel hijacked off the coast of Somalia has retaken control of the ship and has one pirate in custody.

The official said the status of the other pirates is unknown but they were reported to "be in the water." The official spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter.

I'm guessing they are in the water without the benefit of, you know, a boat.

EPIC FAIL.

[UPDATE]...or maybe not. CNN is reporting the crew has the ship, but the remaining pirates have the captain.
