SUMMARY OF INFORMATION:
SG1A

drug contraband ?:
a.
WHEN:
Not determined in this session.
The
is
SG1A
presently (1300 Local 24 APR 90) still in port awaiting on-loading of drugs.
b.
WHERE: Drugs will be "dropped" for later pickup on the northwestern
end of a very small island (see Fig. 1) which is part of a cluster of very
small, unhabited islands off the northwestern coast of a much larger island.
The northwestern coast of this much larger island looks like a jaguar's head
when seen from the air, or on a map.
Dowsing produced a general area for
this island group at approximately 21 degrees N / 72 degrees W, which is
between the Bahamas and the Turk & Calcos Island group (see map, Fig. 2) .
2.
(S/STD)
Determine and describe the vessel's route of travel: Vessel
will go directly from Columbia to the dropoff point, via a path which goes
northwest from Columbia between Navassa Island and Haiti, then turning to
the northeast to go between Cuba and Haiti to the Turk Islands.
3.
(S/STD)
Determine the destination of the contraband:
It will be taken
to a storage warehouse somewhere in the same group of islands where it is
dropped. From there, the shipment will be broken up, its final destination

being several places around the world.
4.
(S/STD)
Describe the vessel :
The vessel is much larger than a "yacht-
size", but is not a large commercial vessel.
It appears to be privately
owned and operated. Dark black and warm tan stripes on a white background
give it an "aztec-like" appearance.
Its upper structure has a sloping
front.
5. (S/STD)
Identify call signs associated with the vessel :
No callsigns
were perceived, but there was an impression that a code phrase of "estoy
calliente" would be used in radio communications to denote the drugs being
aboard.
