Summary of Information
The target vessel is currently located at 79 W 19 20 N, between Jamaica
and Grand Cayman Island.
It is traveling in a northwesterly direction. The
target is carrying contraband. However, the narcotics are not a conventional
type of cocaine; it is solid, dense and tightly packed. The contraband is
associated with long tubes which resemble the type used for storing
navigational charts.
These
tubes, in turn, are hidden within a cavity in the
bow area of the vessel.
The contraband is to be transferred to another vessel at sea south of
the Terrebonne Bay area of southern Louisiana (between 90 and 91 degrees W
and 28 and 29 degrees N).
This will take place during the Memorial Day
period (+/- 2 days). The vessel receiving the cargo resembles a small
fishing trawler or "shrimper". Its nets are frayed and the characters "V, T,
7, 0 and 3" are associated with this boat in some way.
There is a tall,
heavy-set man with a heavy black beard and untucked flannel shirt on the
pick-up boat. The pick-up time is early morning and it is gray and foggy.
The pick-up boat will come from an area which is predominately tidal estuary.
The destination of the contraband is a location associated with the name
of Flambeau or Flanareaux.
The tubes which are associated with the contraband are 3 1/2 to 4 inches
in diameter and 3 feet long. They resemble navigational chart tubes. These
tubes are both stacked vertically and horizontally a cavity in the bow of the
vessel.
THe tubes rather resemble a bangalore torpedo. The cavity occurs
behind the bow-side wall of a small room or where a passageway widens a bit.
There is a triangular shaped wooden object which sits center and attached to
this wall.
Cushion covered benches abut on either side of this wooden
object.
There are windows or portholes above some of the benches (see
diagram).
The wooden object is reddish with tan trim. It is approximately
3.5 to 4 feet tall and 18 inches on a side. A small railing runs along the
top, rear edge. The entire object is well constructed and very polished.
There are 3 black wooden rails attached to, or 3 slots cut into, each of the
two front sides (see diagram) .
This triangular wooden object has something
to do with the access to something; possibly the bow cavity.
