What are these boats anchored in Coyote Bay
There is a BIG yacht and a black, stealth-like speed boat anchored behind Coyote Island in Coyote Bay (Bahia Concepcion). They may be registered in
the Cayman Islands, but don't know. Anyone have more info? I have a photo of the speed boat, use this link

Doesn't look military to me. Not even a national flag flying.
Don't I remember something looking like this associated with one of the tech billionaires? Steve Jobs, maybe? [I know...he's history]

I was told the name of the yacht is KOGO. Just google "KOGO yacht" to see more about it. Don't know any more about the speed boat, though. They seem
to be travelling together.

The boat in the pic was in Costa Baja marina much of this past year. One of the gas jockeys at the gas dock said it was the tender for the bigger
yacht- sort of the gofer boat.

Interesting, bajafzj80. Welcome to BajaNomad.
Do you have any more info on the mystery? Better hurry up. I'm starting to hate rich people.

With it's 15 gallon per mile fuel
consumption, and 450 mile top speed range, that means it has at least a 6750 gallon capacity. It sounds to me like it's a floating fuel tank with
motors. 30k in fuel to travel 450 miles? Wow!

It's a yacht that is usually based out of La Paz
The big one that is usually with it is Kogo, I forget what the stealth bomber looking one is called, but it is a Wally 118

Coyote Bay always makes me think of Pompano. Perhaps it belongs to Roger, and he is in port to have outriggers installed.

Mark and Olivia are using them to haul the drugs ordered by the hotel and supposed owner. The little black boat that looks like a Darth Vader boat is
the personal tender of El Mano Negro.

Thank you for link. Impressive boat!
From site:"Kogo is not for sale or charter to US residents while in US waters."
Wonder why this is the case.

Yes...I was thinking the same
