Its very likely the mainstream media pick up this stuff because they follow him :D

Why wouldn't they track it and wait until it rendezvoused with people they could arrest?

Also, today I learned it's illegal to operate a semi-submersible in Colombia.

Steer with GPS, that way you are only listening.

I wouldn't rely on Starlink, it seems like something that could be discovered easily. Any authority that had a map of where legit ships are could filter down to the mysterious Starlinks that are in the middle of the water, but near a remote coast, having traveled from Colombia, not on a known vessel.

Maybe if you need the comms, you rely on radio. Whatever the ham radio people use could perhaps be made into something. You don't need a lot of bandwidth anyway.

I guess the question is economics, then. How many trips could you get on a little boat that has a solar panel, electric engine, a battery, GPS, and a radio? And what would that cost?

That’s some level of confidence on the part of the Colombian military. I thought it was still customary to declare at least half otherwise nobody would believe you.

I think both conjectures are likely true.

I dont like how publicly traded status is put on a pedestal and treated like a reward

everything should have price discovery

Bokon Taylay!
