Very fast 3 and 4 engine speedboats are not your average saltwater fishing boat but there are a very large number of them used for all sorts of activities. There are a surprising number of $250K + versions. Just do a quick search on boattreder.com using > $50000, 3 engines and you will come up with hundreds of them for sale. Some even get over a mile per gallon of gas at full speed
Mike is acting as if 4 engine boats were designed for drug running and all other purposes are negligible. It's likely the other way around.
snip Applications for speed
Transport: High-speed pangas are used for ferrying passengers or goods between islands or to remote coastal areas, as noted by Panga Sports.
Tourism: The speed and efficiency make them ideal for activities like whale watching, snorkeling tours, and island hopping, allowing operators to cover more ground in less time.
Fishing: A fast panga allows anglers to quickly reach fishing spots or cover more territory when trolling or casting lures, as explained by Xpress Boats. snip
ME: What I hope doesn't happen is the intelligence contacts on the boats get bribed and they start allowing some boats to get bombed ( with fake dope), and they designate a few tourist/sportfisher boats to be blown up. As Soon as you blow up a few civilian boats it will get ugly and we'll have a terrible reputation in Latin America. The CIA is fallible, but does fairly well over all. Curve ball, anyone? So let's not pretend it isn't risky, that we can't already have blown up innocents, and that plata o plomo, silver or lead, is very real.
