Sorry I guess sarcasm does not work too well on the 'net.

They could try jamming all the marine frequencies, board the ship and if they do find WMDs take the crew off and sink the ship. In fact announcing such a measure ahead of time would stop any carrier for taking part in such a scheme. New ships are not cheap.
