The methodology used in this activity is
exploratory. Results should not be considered as stand-alone;
but used or evaluated in conjunction with other proven data
sources (HUMINT, SIGINT, IMAGERY, OPEN SOURCE, and/or MASINT) .
Generic data (e.g., general shapes) are more reliable then

(U) DATA SUMMARIES:
(S/NF/SG/LIMDIS)
Following are the perceived highlights
from each source.
- (S/NF /SG/LIMDIS)
SG1B
Source A:
-- The target
is a small light vessel which has
some of the color red with dark lettering. The people aboard are
few in number and one may be female. Another crew member is a
male who has been injured or is ill. The boat is disguised in
purpose perhaps as a fishing vessel or for divers. There are
scuba divers aboardGhB are on the receiving end of a drug drop
from either another boat or likely from a plane. The scuba
divers aboard the
pick up crates from the ocean floor
near rocks or reefs off the coast and deliver the drugs to a
major city port. The crates have contained therein a green flaky
substance like marijuana although some cocaine may be involved.
These individuals are small time drug receivers or dealers. The
connection will be completed in April.
-
(S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Source B:
-- The target is a large, sleek white colored vessel with
bright blue trim. It is extremely fast. It's bow is steeply
angled and it cuts through the water in a dramatic manner
(sketch a) .
-- There has been some recent repairs made to the target; to
repair a large gash in the hull. There is an image of large,
jagged, square-shaped damage as if a section of the boat had been
sheared off. There is also a sense that the target has had some
changes made to its original design; something associated with
detection or sensing.
The power of the target has been altered
as well.

-- Contradictory sense of bellowing fabric with that of a
high speed prop spinning through water.
-- The following concepts, objects and/or features were
perceived to be associated with this target:
the numbers 741 or 417.
oblong wooden crates with unusually thick sides.
the image of individual fish packed in tubes; the
tubes, in turn, are packed and supported by a white, foamy
material on either end. These are then secured into blocks which
are cubed-shaped.
the design or configuration of an on-board toilet is
not typical of this vessel.
large cylinders with heavy rope wound around them.
-
a wooden gazebo-type structure located at the end of
a long walkway which is suspended above the water
(sketch a) .
old, leather bound books and an elaborately ornate
wooden chest.
a man performing a cranking action; adjusting rope.
a circular, flat disc which slowly rotates; this
feels foreign or out-of-place on the target.
SG1B
-
a large, cone-shaped object reminiscent of a dip net
or "collection" apparatus used for collecting small bait animals.
(S/NF /SG/LIMDIS)
Source C:
-- The target consists of a vessel that has been suspected
of carrying contraband in the form of illegal drugs in the past.
This vessel is currently sailing in a northern direction from its
destination and will reach its port of call within the next seven
to ten days. The vessel can be considered medium to small.
-- The target vessel may run into difficulty (either
mechanical or weather) in the near future that may delay it
reaching its port of call on time.

-- The vessel may be carrying contraband now. If it is, the
contraband is stored in square yellow or tan boxes that can be
opened by a key. The boxes of contraband are stored near the
front of the ship below deck.
-- The captain of the vessel is well aware that contraband
is on board.
