Abstract:
1. A method for deterring pirate entry onto a vessel, comprising the steps of: attaching one or more caps to a fire suppression node of said vessel, wherein each said cap includes a slit defined solely within a downward face of said cap, and wherein said node is an outlet for water exiting an existing fire suppression system of said vessel, said cap configured to act as a spray nozzle for said water; positioning said caps near a deck of said vessel just over a side of said vessel such that upon activation of said fire suppression system said water is directed entirely downward through said slit over the side of the vessel and maintained downward, as a result producing a non-lethal wall of water along the side of the vessel to wash away said pirate and flood a pirate's vessel.
