‘the cocaine doesn’t belong to any crew member,'

We did pick up that hitchhiker, though...

Makes me wonder how many of these homemade subs are at the bottom of the Pacific?

The early versions, at least, were designed by Russians and built with local labor.

Past crews have been local fishermen pressed into service. Their families are held hostage against their success. We can probably assume that the families will be killed as a warning to others not to get caught.

Looks like the cartels have chosen to follow Ericsson’s layout of monitor.

They are quite similar indeed.

The Monitor was an awesome vessel. There were many important innovations that became mainstay features of modern ships.
