This is so stupid. Ready to run down there and get it now. Just need crane set up and maybe do it under cover of night.

Guessing the crane is owned and operated by the military

I would recommend strongly to refrain from partaking in this idea. Not so good. Unless you want extended stay in Cuban jail waiting to acquire some bullets for the firing squad.

1. he didnt get proper US clearances and they told him once he and the boat are out of Cuban water he is going to visit Ben...

2. He didn't grease the proper hands down there and when he showed up they took the boat and told him to pound sand.

3. He is a rich enough kid that when things didnt go how he imagined and his 15 minutes of fame were quickly turning into 15 minutes of embarassment over huge seas and incredible speeds, he dropped it like a hot rock and walked away.

All he really needs is to send Chuck Norris over there to pick it up and run it back, But then Chuck would just destroy his record on the way back to Key West...

1 Not the US
2 Probably did grease the right hands, he just did not factor that he needed to regrease the left hands also
3 He is rich enough to understand that he can't enjoy his life in Cuban jail or with the death squad.

[QUOTE=bck;4510573]On Cuba magazine
Cargo ships leave the US to Cuba every week. Loaded with commercial and agricultural products. These same ships return empty. Oh and the have cranes on the ship to load and unload themselves. Posts in US have cranes and ports in Cuba have cranes. Other option would be freighter route thru US to Mexico to Cuba and return. This route has been used for over 25 years. Go to Cuba and see all the products that are for sale made in the US and even made in Miami of all places. These products and stores for everybody but the Cuban people.

If gone in 60 seconds can steal 60 cars in a night a boat should be a walk in the park. Heck the even did it twice, once in the 60's and then again in 2000's:party-smiley-004:

Being that the boat is in Cuba with leaky hull. Send Bill and stick a "Cigar" in the hole to plug the leak and ride her back to the US.

I was thinking more along the lines of flex-seal it shows on tv that it fixes boat leaks :)
