👀You are wrong. Let me help correct you on this. I’ve deployed to this AOR and done these operations for my first 6 years in the Navy. 1. There are trafficking routes in the Caribbean and Pacific. They tend to stay away from major shipping lanes. 2. There are various types of vessels used to trafficking. — GoFasts (GF) — Logistic Support Vessels (LSVs) 3. A GoFast are about 20-25 feet long and typically have 3-5 crew members, 2-4 outboard engines and can travel approximately 45-55 knots. They are filled with diesel fuel containers and conceal narcotics in various parts of the skiff. Whether false bottoms, concealed by a tarp or even in fishing nets. 4. Logistic Support Vessels (LSVs) are fishing vessels that act as a supply and fuel depot for GF’s. Sometimes, LSVs carry the narcotics to way points for drop off to either other LSVs or GFs. 5. What you typically see is a 50-80 mile span of way points when they leave port. A GF has enough fuel to make it to one or two way points before it needs to refuel. This is a daisy chain method used by almost all traffickers. 6. Your assumption that they can’t make that journey is correct if it is a direct point to point. But that’s not how it operates. 7. Another part of this operation is human trafficking. The LSVs will tow a barge with children packed onboard to various way points. Mark it with GPS and leave it there. Other LSVs will come in and pick it up to tow it to next way point location. As you can imagine. This relies on the next LSV to actually find the barge. Sad to say, many of them are never located. So there you go — sliced and diced.
