That's what police estimated the saran wrapped 33 kilos of cocaine my son's buds found floating a mile outside of our inlet (Sebastian Inlet, FL) this afternoon, believe it or not one of the kids actually suggested they keep it. ... "Over Ruled!"

Pics to follow whenever I get them from my son.


$900k ... would have bought a helluva nice fishing boat. ;\)

At least the police are going to have a good time!

That's crazy. I could use some pocket change, too.

Yeah, but the taxes of 900,000$ of coke are too high.

That sort of stuff is found down here along the beaches quite often, bails of pot and bags of cocaine ... the local authorities fly helicopters low along the beaches every afternoon looking for something that might have washed ashore.

I keep a sharp eye out whenever we're fishing ... that floating 'debris' holds fish! \:D

Here's the article in today's paper ... Coke Found

When does 33 kilos equal 60 pounds, where'd it go!? \:D

Deputies estimated the street value around $4-5 million, "The street value of the package is substantial, but probably not a huge loss to the smugglers ... losing one package to them would just be considered overhead."

Whoa.

Good thing the kids decided to tell you about their 'find' instead of coming up with a dumb plan to peddle the stuff. The smugglers would have definately noticed that!
