Interdicted!
So “worth” zero dollars.
In fact it’s going to cost the taxpayers to move, store, and dispose of this garbage.
Dealing with the crew will not be expense free either.
I hate lousy sensationalist headlines no matter the source.
Just sink the semisubmersible and sail away. No crew, no seizure, no salvage, all gone.
It just vanishes into the Bermuda Triangle. Or the San Diego Triangle, or the Puget Sound Triangle, etc etc.
They’d find another way, but diminishing returns works BOTH ways...
