Operation Odessa on Netflix Ft. Apache
 
Cool documentary. Looks like it is a couple years old, but if you have not seen it well worth watching. 80's Miami, Powerboats, Ft. Apache, Drug running, Russian Mob, real entertaining. Good entertainment for quarantine.

Was the engine dyno at Hawk? Did they ever actually build the turbine boats?

Tom A. 04-14-2020 09:54 AM

Excellent documentary - This would make a great movie!

Quote:

"Almeida was a specialist in obtaining black-market goods for status-crazed drug dealers. He created a souped-up cigarette boat that went for $2 million and was presumably used to transport cocaine".


Anyone care to speculate/comment on if this was a realty and was actually made. Would have to been made early 90's???

I watched it a while back, very interesting. Also "The Legend of Cocaine Island" is a good one. No boats but interesting nonetheless.

badluck 04-14-2020 05:21 PM

Watched it yesterday, great documentary.

PigNaPoke 04-14-2020 09:43 PM

Definitely a good watch. . . Bunch of character's for sure.

That dude is no joke!! Crazy he's still on the run after 25 years wanted by FBI/DEA/Interpol. Dudes good. Love how he was sending post cards from Cuba. LOL

Great Documentary.

Great Documentary.

Is there any merit to Scarface being based off that "Tony" sure seems like there are a lot of similarities? Pretty interesting and puts it in perspective when Tony thinks Tarzan and Juan are "soft" and "too nice".

Flying a bunch of helicopters across the Russia and test driving Russian subs is pretty epic.

dykstra 04-15-2020 10:18 AM

Juan imitating Pablo was pretty epic too. Talk about balls that clank!!

[QUOTE=dykstra;4733896]Juan imitating Pablo was pretty epic too. Talk about balls that clank!![/QUOT
no kidding ! I’m thinking when they did that had to be close to when Pablo was on the run and was killed??

RSCHAP1 04-15-2020 10:36 AM

Tried to watch last night...got few minutes in before finding it was not family friendly with wife and kids there too....
Will see the rest as soon as I can.

Ratty206ls 04-15-2020 12:11 PM

The wife and I watched this the other night.i was surprised how much we were laughing. I bet they were a fun bunch of guys to party with back in the day

That was CRAZY. Can't believe these guys operated at that level. Thanks for the recommendation.

RSCHAP1 04-16-2020 10:45 AM

Watched it all last night.
:)

AWESOME flick
Someone should alert Travolta on how things should be done :) :) :)
VERY entertaining

Blueabyss 04-16-2020 11:26 AM

Have not been able to watch it as I dont have netflix or showtine. So is the Tarzan guy still in jail? If so is it one of those Never Ever getting out??

Chris

Drock78 04-16-2020 11:57 AM

Tarzan was deported to Moscow and banned from ever entering the US

Blueabyss 04-16-2020 03:06 PM

So is he in Jail in Moscow or Panama or is he free?

****SPOILER ALERT******


















Everyone is free - They beat the case. Except the dude from Miami. He was free but got arrested recently on more drug and gun smuggling charges. The Tony guy has been on the run for 25 years but remains "free". Tarzan was deported to Moscow after the trial where he still lives.

apex svt 04-16-2020 06:39 PM

Watched it last night. Definitely worth watching. Enjoyed the boats for sure.

Spicy 04-17-2020 08:46 AM

Watched last night also.... pretty entertaining documentary

PigNaPoke 04-17-2020 09:30 AM

I am pretty sure Tony and Juan both got caught up again in 2018... only Tarzan is free.

Italy extradited tony on new charges of conspiracy with others and Juan.

pm203 04-17-2020 09:48 PM

Excellent way to pass some time, thanks. In one of the scenes there is a black TestaRossa with a Cig plate mounted on the front!

Twin O/B Sonic 04-18-2020 09:04 AM

Great show.

Caught the Ferrari, early in, had a Cigarette front license plate.

Poker Face Xtreme 04-18-2020 11:55 AM

Definitely worth the watch

Burned to the waterline correct? That was the only one? Had the hot tub in the back at one point?
