      Eh some arguably are but there are videos of the ones they think they’ll get the least blowback from and those are multi engineer v hulls with dozens of rectangular packages front to back. Those ones would be stopped either way since that’s traditionally been a red flag for drug trafficking. That said normally you stop the boats and arrest and attempt to turn them to get bigger fish in your net not the guys paid like a thousand dollars to drive boats. You want chemists and labs not jose the fisherman who couldn’t pay his bills and turned to crime.
