Maersk Alabama Captain Richard Phillips is seen at his home in Underhill, Vermont in this undated photo provided by his family April 8, 2009. The crew of the U.S.-flagged, Danish-owned freighter hijacked by pirates off Somalia retook control of the ship on Wednesday but their captain, Phillips, was still being held hostage on a lifeboat, the shipping line and a crew member said.
