Is there anywhere we can see exactly what Disney's plan for the point is. There are not any details in this article. Are they just copying what they are doing on their private island?
Sounds like they need to quickly get the satellite bases/fuel depot in Inagua and Ragged Is operational and get smaller vessels to patrols those waters. I have not heard anything of the 100 ft vessels grounding only the larger 140 ft boats. The Bahamas is not a easy country to navigate and patrol by sea. They should sell off those two big 200ft they have been having problems with forever and get some of the small 80 ft boats to patrol those areas.
Poor Haiti? Poor Bahamas! Im surprised there isnt much talk about this. From what it sounds like they actually got to shore before some bumbled into the police, Where the hell was the defense force patrols. I thought they made improvements since the last to landings.
Relatively speaking aircraft are not that expensive. Smaller aircraft like this http://www.diamond-air.at/en/special-mi… are possibly less than 2mil. Can't imagine the maintenance and crew costs are more than it is for one of those boats. The smallest ones of the new boats we just got cost over 10mil i believe. We need multiple layers to catch these illegal immigrants.
I still don't understand why the defense force isn't using more aircraft. Drones are nice but still seem expensive and have a much higher crash rate. For the price they paid for just one of those bigger boats they could of gotten four or five aircraft. And not even regular aircraft but modified ones with actual zoomable surveillance cameras for day and night patrols instead of trying spot it with just their eyes which they seem to be doing now.
I wonder what the significance was of the Dominicans sending their navy's flagship to pick up poachers. I would think that would be an embarrassment especially if the ship is some hand me down buoy tender from 50 years ago.
The catering for the festival was handled by some other company I believe. There was and earlier article about it. Pretty sure she only handled the catering for the Organizers,workers, Models etc during the months before the festival
