Ce que couvre cette vidéo

Ben, sailing aboard Nahoa, found a cut-open package with white powder and a yellow balloon-like wrapping on a remote windward beach in Fulonga, in the Lau region of Fiji.0:11 The find came one week after the Fijian Navy boarded and searched Nahoa at the southeastern corner of Fiji — one of several sailboat searches the navy was conducting in those waters to intercept drugs trafficked from South America toward New Zealand and Australia.1:00 Ben reported the package's GPS coordinates to the Fijian Navy by email, marked it with a stick, and the navy confirmed by reply that they collected it.18:49

Ben researched the find and cross-referenced a Facebook group called Fiji Observers, which reported police investigating suspected methamphetamine found floating near Anguilla Island — directly adjacent to Fulonga — with identical green packaging and markings.19:30 He concludes the package was likely methamphetamine.18:49 A kilo of wholesale meth, he notes, carries a value of $100,000–$250,000.21:58 The yellow material was not a balloon but waterproof outer wrapping.20:54 The package bore an unidentified logo; similar packages found elsewhere were marked "Toyota," possibly indicating producer, customer, or shipment destination.19:46 After the find, an unidentified plane circled the anchorage for an extended period.17:24 The Fijian Navy boarding was professional and cooperative; the navy's primary focus was cocaine and methamphetamine entering via both commercial fishing vessels and private yachts.3:54
