Waves stirred up by Hurricane Dorian brought an unexpected delivery to Melbourne's shoreline earlier Tuesday...

a wrapped package that washed up, labeled ‘dinamitar' or dynamite in Spanish. It was a kilo of cocaine...

Police also caution residents to contact police if other unusual debris washes ashore.

A stash house got inundated in the Bahamas is my guess

Abaco is flooded bad

White Line Fever???

Narco Subs more often do the Buenaventura Colombia to west coast Mexico gig

It appears to be more in line with Javier and Ernesto somewhere under duress.

I think of Glen Frye singing Smuggler’s Blues.

Square Grouper.

Square Grouper

Is that the source of the Mickey D’s ‘square’ fish on the sandwich?

Not being a fisherman, I’d never seen a square fish.

Don’t try paper straws.

Hurricane Dorian is sending bricks of cocaine to Florida beaches

DANG!

[COBOL2Java]

Not always.

The Coast Guard intercepts narco-subs in the Caribbean.

Northern Bahamas isn’t the Caribbean and this storm moved east to west across northern Bahamas ....an area I’m intimately familiar with....and no boat operator smuggler running say from PR or Haiti or JA or Exumas would risk that storm...and take a chance running up past Cay Sal bank and the straits.....those bales came from land ...washed out from west end maybe

What Coast Guard catches mostly is gofast boats from the Guajira in Colombia an d north coast Venezuelan ports headed to south coast Dom Rep....unheard of in my era

All this has made the Catatumbo region of eastern Colombia the new Antioquia or Norte del Valle cartels

Proximity to lawless utterly corrupted Venezuela

Anyhow...confession

My era of expertise is 1980-early 1990s in regards to North coast South America and the Caribbean basin

Everyone I knew is dead or in US prisons or very low key occasionally photographed at a daughters wedding in Barranquilla or Santa Marta

I did read 80% of blow seized today is in Central America or their waters I’m sure you’re right that Colombian cocaine subs ply the Caribbean...I’m for sure out of the loop in 2019 ...thankfully I might add..... Little map courtesy SOUTHCOM
