If you notce the black hull! That boat was actually made to run drugs accross, black hull was design to provide more stealth during the runs accross, I'm not sure but from what I remember the guy who made it had some issues with the law.!! Nice boat!

This is a drug runners boat that was confiscated a couple of years ago now by the US Coast Guard. The boat was brought to a stop in the water by the US Coast Guard Chopper after they failed to stop it several times with the cutter. They were prepared to blow it out of the water if it did not stop. It was all over the news and the net. The pictures of the boat and the take down were sent to me by a Law Enforcement friend of mine..Goes to show the amount of money involved in the drug trade...lol
