  • Several hidden safes still remain on the boat unopened since the early 1990s.  
  • The aluminum hull strikers are legendary for their light weight aluminum hull and accelerated fishing performance.

Dubbed operation Banco, the members were arrested and tried, leaving behind a bevy of top of the line luxury vessels including this 60’ fishing dream. 
  • This particular boat was meticulously maintained on a very regular basis so that a mechanical failure would never be an issue in the middle of a drug run. The waterlines on the boat were removed and placed higher so that when heavily laden it would appear void of heavy cargo.

  • The boat was seized and placed in dry storage until sold at auction
