over the decades, have found so, so many bales of pot on the beach at the east cape...this is NOT a new deal!....on a christmas eve maybe 30 years ago, we found two bales up on the beach at hotel punta colorada and buried 4 or 5 bricks, marking them with sticks stuck in the sand....the next morning the military was combing the beach everywhere....those bricks are still buried...at least most of them...too bad gps wasn't a thing at that time...my, oh my, have i traversed those sand dunes over the past few decades.

no.....seawater totally screws up processed pot....if the seawater hits it, it's done...that fast...it cannot be recovered....but the bales that they are processing are almost watertight now with all the plastic wrap and crap...usually around half of the bales one would find on the beach are destroyed as a result of saltwater intrusion.

The name is actually 'Drift weed'...my kids found a kilo on the beach by shipwrecks in '95. It tends to turn dark if not black and tastes sorta bad after floating for a while. It is the main market sales stock in places like Belize and the Carib side of Guatemala. If you spend any time in places like Placencia or one of the cays this is what the rasta/garfuna guys on the beach have for sale. Driftweed mahn.

Oh, and I didn't know the kids had found the stuff in '95 until 3 months after we got back to the states. They packed it in their dirty laundry bag and tossed it up to me with all the other camp equipment to pack on top of the '71 vw bus in a plastic tarp.
They dogged my van at the tecate border and the dog never flinched and neither did I...ignorance is bliss. Just about killed my kids though when I found out.

Mota del la mar. In my experience you need two gaffs. And some amigos. And then some fish tacos.
