Castro is still in power. Things will not improve until that man dies and is no longer propping up a Communist government.

I would let them stay. Anyone who looked like they had any sort of brains at all, which obviously these guys had if they converted a '51 chevy to a boat, would be given a chance. The idiots who die in the back of poorly ventillated trucks, well, we can send them back. But send these guys to engineering school!

that's what I was thinking.

 

[LordRaiden]

Nice boat. That's just too cool.

 

[DainBramaged]

Kinda sad that they have to even try things like that. I hope Castro goes bye-bye soon.

That is only if his brother doesn't take power.

 

[Spagina]

LOL, that is great. Let them stay, we should award ingenuity like this.

 

[cavemanmoron]

about to come on the news Now,after these commercials..
CBS with Dan Rather

aww they were sent Back.

Cuban migrants fashioned a boat out of a 1951 Chevy pickup truck and "drove" it to within 40 miles of the United States before they were spotted and returned to the island, the U.S. Coast Guard said Wednesday.

The dozen migrants, some sheltered in the truck cab or under a yellow tarp covering the bed, were noticed last week by a U.S. Customs aircraft south of Key West, Coast Guard Petty Officer Ryan Doss said.

 

[rpberry123]

I bet they could've got some big bucks for that pickup if they made it.....

Lots of 1950's vintage cars left in cuba..... Fidel will have to die first before they come to their senses there....

 

[Emos]

Monster Garage, Cuban style!

 

[her209]

Why would anyone want to get out of that paradise called Cuba? That's what I wanna know.

 

[TranSoft]

Wow...!!! You think these cubans saw bad boys 2???

 

[HappyPuppy]

What's sad is tht they will all go to prison for many years.

I agree 100% let them stay!

I agree too, they should have just let them finish their journey.. that is just too cool.

A propeller attached to the drive shaft of the green vintage pickup was pushing it along at about 8 mph, Doss said. The truck-raft was kept afloat by empty 55-gallon drums attached to the bottom as pontoons.

8mph! That is cool. But I agree, it would take some balls to try and drive that thing through the ocean. :Q Good thing they didn't run into any rough seas. They must have had plenty of gas, too. I don't think those old Chevy engines get very good gas milage, especially chugging along at 8MPH.

Maybe that wasn't max speed, and they were getting the most out of their fuel, though. They're obviously not too stupid.. besides the driving a modified truck in the ocean part.

 

[Pastfinder]

Hahaha


I like what Dan Rather said: "The truck sank...like a rock."
