Persons armed with guns in two speedboats trailed a chemical tanker underway at a range of 10nm. Ten mins later, they increased speed and came within two cables astern. Alert crew prevented boarding. Later, three speedboats made similar attempts to board but ship took evasive manoeuvres and boarding was averted.
