<p>As you may have heard by now&mdash;unless you&#8217;re being held hostage by Somali pirates in a fully enclosed lifeboat floating in the Indian Ocean&mdash;the <a href="http://animalnewyork.com/2009/04/unions-defeat-somali-pirates/">Maersk Alabama&#8217;s union</a> Captain Richard Philips was freed on Sunday when <a href=" http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/13/world/africa/13pirates.html?hp">Navy snipers shot his three remaining captors dead</a>, ending the five day ordeal. The merchant marine experts blogging over at <em>G-Captain</em> <a href="http://gcaptain.com/maritime/blog/maersk-alabama-lifeboat-faq/">posted details</a> about the lifeboat the courageous seaman volunteered to vacation on. Turns out it was actually kind of roomy and stocked with supplies. Click through the gallery to get a better glimpse of the 1st class vessel and <a href="http://gcaptain.com/maritime/blog/maersk-alabama-lifeboat-faq/">go here</a> to get a rundown of the inventory that included emergency food rations, a jack-knife, and one set of fishing tackle, among other luxury survival gear. </p>
