So, to be very clear, what do you believe were in those 55 gallon drums on that multiple engined long hull speed boat?

They could be smuggling other things, we got tariffs all over the place.

I'm not going to assume they are drugs, I'm not that weird. I'm confident our military could figure it out and share the evidence, though. They should be competent enough.

Well we'll never know will we? because they blew it up.

Gold? Gems? Cartel victims? Or... a 'boatload of cash'?!

We'll never know now will we?

I get it. If you are travelling in a high speed boat with 55 gallon drums then you get executed, for the crime of travelling in a high speed boat with 55 gallon drums.

Fuel oil deliveries to smaller communities that don't buy in tanker quantities. Those boats are basically the u-hauls of the sea.

> I mean if they had drugs we would gather proof and hold trials

That's the reason you believe the boats weren't carrying drugs?

I am looking at the map and confused. How can these small boats reach US? Venezuela is over 900 nautical miles away from US, assuming 40 knots it can take 24 hours. Do they have enough fuel? Why strike boats on the Pacific Ocean? One cannot reach the Pacific from Venezuela unless via Panama canal.
