SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
SG1A
1.
(S/STD)
Identify and describe the probable narcotics smuggling
mothership known by the callsign
a.
Perceived name as (approximation of) "REINA" or "PUNTA REINA".
b. Repeated indications of chipped, dull yellow paint, with a bright
red (company symbol?) angled across the superstructure (see sketch, Fig. 1)
There also appears to be a strange (to me) triangular open area underneath
the ship out of which one can see the open water (see sketch, Fig. 2).
2.
(S/STD)
Is the vessel carrying contraband ?: Repeated attempts to find
contraband drugs turned up no drugs presently (0930-0945 9 APR 90) on board.
3.
(S/STD)
Where is the vessel located ?: Present (0920 9 APR 90)
location is approximately 16 deg. 30' N / 74 deg. 30' W.
4.
(S/STD)
Identify any associated vessel (s): Cursory search did not
reveal any.
Detailed search not addressed in this session due to time
constraints.
5.
(S/STD)
What is the route and speed of advance of the mothership ?:
Present (9 APR 90) route is northward from present location turning
northwesterly to go between Haiti and Cuba (see arrowed line on Map, Fig 3).
6.
