In all seriousness of course that would deter unwanted companions. It would also deter your ability to enter most harbors. At some point you have to get past the harbor master and customs. It's a fine dance. I think for the most part they assume you're "carrying." My main teacher on this subject carries a 12ga. and has a hidy hole just forward of the engine compartment. He also carries a torn, ratty looking mainsail. The first sign anything small beeps on his radar he hoists it. As he told me- "You can drive your Bentley in Beverly Hills, taking it through South Central, probably not smart."
Bottom line, look like you have nothing and look like you're willing to put up one hell of a fight to keep that nothing.
