How far offshore off of Baja do you have to get to be in international waters?
I was thinking that a Netherlands flagged ship could offer specialty cruises for recreational drug users. In addition to the all-hours hashish smoking
lounge, they could also have specialty nights such as the Mushroom Madness Masquerade Ball, Cocaine Blowfest, Ecstasy Night, and maybe one night of
Drunken Tomfoolery. Now I'm sure that since BajaNomad has a mostly mature crowd, not many here would condone such a thing, but I'm wondering about the
legality of such a cruise. I would imagine that they would make money, but can it be legally done? Baja would be the perfect coast for such a cruise
because of the climate and the proximity of the targeted Southern California demographic. It wouldn't even have to have any ports of call - just a few
nights of pleasure cruising.

they would need to make port sometime to re supply and there would be the problem where to hide the inventory.

As much as I love the idea of an "all-hours hashish smoking lounge" Unfortunately this would be hard to accomplish. As marijuana is technically
illegal, albeit tolerated in the Netherlands.

That is the unfortunate reality of the current sociological and political state(s)of mind.
Imagine.... being thrown in jail for possesing a plant? You are in all regards an up-standing citizen, tax payer, father , husband. But the
govt. throws you in jail for growing and consuming a plant.

Being in international waters doesn't save you. You can get busted anywhere.
