WOW! Impressive all around the boat put up more of fight than the smugglers did. That thing didn't want to sink!

RunninHotRacing163.1 01-08-2008 10:11 AM

SWEET !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now why did'nt we do that in the STRAIGHTS ??? and quit dikin around:D

dreamer 01-08-2008 11:09 AM

so did they drain all the oil and fuel out of it before they sunk it?

they should get a cg fine

That one lady sure was excited to get all that product on board.

i actually wanted to join HITRON at one time.

this was years before i got the crazy idea, "Hey i want to wind up making those boats they chase!" :D

HITRON was the first to use Airborne Use Of Force (AUF)
and it works too. a one-hundred percent (100%) sucess rate if im thinking correctly. that is, everything they go after, they get. :drink:

originally called HITRON 10 (ten members who pioneered the concepts involved)
now HITRON Jacksonville

i know theyve performed at the JAX Airshow on the beach

theyve been using the MH-68A's for some time. (Modifed Augusta A109's)
before long, theyre gonna be replaced with a more potent varient of the HH-65 Dolphins (gonna be called the MH-65C?)
(HH-65's are modified AS 356 Dauphins, Aerosatiale if im correct...)

(HITRON=Helicopter Interdiction Tactical Squadron)

Looked like they were burning it off before it went into the water. They are CG not EPA , air quality is not their deal.

That sub was busted by a navy ch-60 chopper

thats what I was thinkin'.........

publicity stunt.......

PJDiesel 01-08-2008 06:37 PM

Thats a lot of butter.

Now then, wouldn't it make a whole lot more sense to liquidate the boat and recoup about .5% of what that total "mission" cost the taxpayers?

The "war" on drugs is a joke. If there wasn't such a vast and hungry market for coke and crack in the US there wouldn't even be enough money and/or allure for those guys to be out there with that quantity.

Cool video though.

LapseofReason 01-08-2008 07:12 PM

They should sell the boat, shoot the dealers, poison the coke and put it back on the street and the problem will go away.

Game On 01-08-2008 07:25 PM

Not really a go fast at 30 kts is it? You would think if the runners were serious, they would buy a twin turbine cat or something...:D :evilb:

They were hauling 5220lbs! That would be a horrible maneuvering boat.

Make the dealers overdose on their own product and throw their lifeless bodies to feed the sharks.

Then confiscate the boats and sell them for profit :)

Not cheap to conduct that operation!

Thats what I was thinking, but wouldn't that be like, really bad for the environment (and anyone within a 2 mile radius)?

A lot of chemicals go into cocaine production, most of which you probably wouldn't want to breathe in.

whatabout1 01-09-2008 02:57 PM

That's bull to sink it. Sell it at auction. I agree with the aim and
that girl seemed way to excited to 5000 lbs of coke onboard !!!
I wonder if she guards the evidense ? That could explain the aim.

We once got a pot runner at auction. It was a very worn
Stinger with a 3x3 ft hatch cut in the deck. Inside had
been hacted out and about 8 gas tanks holding 1000 gals installed.

We stripped it for parts and scrapped the hull.
