[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thing is, there isn't a ship in our navy that can go as fast as a dory with four outboards. Not sure what the proper protocol is for that situation, other than to track it until it stops.[/quote]

You don’t think our own military has its own boats or aircraft that can match a shitty third world hot rodded speedboat?

If we don’t, then the military should be defunded altogether. Because I’m pretty sure anyone on this discussion forum could buy a boat that was essentially the same thing the smugglers were using for a couple hundred thousand dollars or so.

If we can afford 1.5 billion dollar stealth bombers and 10 billion dollar aircraft carriers, why wouldn’t we have $200,000 speed boats?[/quote]

We are the imperial power, like it or not.  We've been successfully stopping boats like this for years.  Of course we have better boats than they do.[/quote]

It’s possible that the dory was all engine, like a motorcycle’s and there is no car realistically as fast and nimble as a souped up motorcycle.

But there were many options. [/quote]
