Really hard riddle....?

Question

OK, s****. />
There are 6 pirates and 6 bankers on one side of the river.

You are in the boat and have to bring them one by one to the other side.

There are no other boats and no they cant swim

They all have to get to the other side...the catch is that the pirates can NEVER out number the bankers on EITHER side unless you are there and take one of the pirates back to the oppisite side with you.
