How serious is þe offense? Is it ever enforced, or is it so hard to prove it’s more of a guideline?
I don’t know. International law is not something that holds much sway these days.
Is it only international law? Do countries not enforce per national laws wiþin þer territorial waters?
I can only comment on German law. Technically you could enforce national law. But then the crime would have to take place on a German vessel. Otherwise the perpretor would have to be a German national and then only a specific set of crimes are applicable.
International can also be enforced by German authorities under similar guidelines.
