Therefore, the departure of a Defender-type vessel belonging to the Naval Search and  Rescue and Maritime Surveillance Station (ENSAR) of Ensenada was ordered in order to safeguard human life at sea.
When the meeting point was reached with the damaged vessel, naval personnel proceeded to perform a routine inspection as part of the protocol, in order to provide support for the repair of said mechanical failure.

During this review, several black packages with suspected illicit cargo were detected inside, finding in total 62 packages containing dried grass with the characteristics similar to marijuana, giving a total weight of approximately 460 kilograms, which was followed by the arrest of its crew and the confiscation of the alleged illicit cargo.

  2. Why not toss the bales? I can’t imagine calling the cops for help AND keeping all of my contraband on the boat.

    1. Rather prefer the arrest than answer to the boss. Plus they are overworked and need a vacation.

    2. 11:52 wet bales are real heavy, then they would not float away, so the perps chose to keep their captors happy.
      and ransom their load later...the Marinas need gas too

  4. They didn't toss the bales,because they need proof that something went wrong while transporting them. Now this news article will be their proof that something actually went wrong, and that they didn't just rip their boss off.

  6. No no don't call the Marina's to help, they will let all the suspects go, and take credit for the contraband found.

  7. The poor boat passengers were not expecting the saviors to come and play nosy aunts, what do you want, they probably did not even know the boat was loaded, and in any case I am sure the pirates did not have a search warrant, this is a case for Perry Mason, he knows about this shit.
    Hope it works fine in Mexico. But during their arrest they have to put out with their new jail husbands for a week at least.
    Eso se sacan por andar ahi de calientes

  9. Why do these articles always describe the dope "dried grass with the characteristics similar to marijuana"? Is that some kind of legal wording so the publication doesn't get sued? Or is it typical Spanish oratory flourish aka bullshit? Why can't they just say x kilos of marijuana?
