Indian Ocean  registration before transiting High Risk Area
The Singapore Maritime and Port Authority (MPA) issued a circular
advising masters of ships transiting or operating in the High Risk
Area for piracy attacks in the West Indian Ocean to register with both
the UK Maritime Trade Organization (UKMTO) and the Maritime Security
Centre-Horn of Africa (MSCHOA). It also notes that the Vessel Movement
Registration process with the MSCHOA has recently been amended to
include an entry boundary to the North of the High Risk Area (230N).
Shipping Circular 10-2011 (5/9/11).

(I understand the authorities even want to know which yachts are
transiting...)
