Not specifically pirates, but Eureka Miniatures has a great selection of modern figures including Somali gunmen:

Plenty of folk making Somalis in 28mm. Eureka are probably the pick of the bunch quality wise.

Boats? They seem to mainly use open skiffs, Boston whaler type affairs or RHIBS, even Zodiacs IIRC.
There are some 3D printed RHIBS out there. Here's one from a chap in Germany I have bought quite a bit of stuff from. I don't have this model but hi work is excellent.

There are a few old open skiffs out there from various makers and of coure you shouldn't neglect the world of bathtub toys.

Made these years ago, mothership and smaller boats. Should you be interested I might sell them as I don´t need them if I still have them.
