Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] (Yet Another) Cocaine sub caught.

George:

I'm sure it will continue. Ever since 9/11 the American airways are being scanned with such precision that most drug smugglers prefer using the oceans to move their cargo. Fortunately for us, it?s pretty obvious that our PSUBS are of no real value to the drug smuggling trade.

And if they keep building them like this one was built (slow, flimsy, easy to spot) then our hobby is safe.

Something we don?t know (and many of us might not want to think about) is how many smugglers have tried to use a makeshift submarine and drowned in the attempt.

One of these days these news stories will supply pictures.

I worry that if this activity continues it will spark legislation though, and the last thing we need is politicians and lawyers getting involved in this field.

USCG caught another sub carrying 3.5 tons of cocaine. The sub, which could only submerge 6 feet underwater, was 45 feet long and originated from Columbia.
