The vessel is carrying cocaine which is wrapped in small, clear, fist-sized, plastic bags which are then wrapped in insulating materials. These packages have been stuffed into small , virtually inaccessible mooks and crannies under and around engine (s) /pipes/machinery in the far stern the ship (from starboard past the centerline) , well- below the waterline (D-F 10 on notional ship grid) . The contraband will be transferred to similarly sized vessel on 30 APR 90, under the cover of darkness (after 2200 hours) at a location east of the Turks and Caicos Islands (22 12'N 69 12' W) .
