isn’t most of that area fished out anyway; so a lot of the trawlermen have been reduced to bringing in heroin and other drugs anyway as a “survival crime?”
I’ve heard that lot of them deliberately give HM Coastguard duff info of their position etc (mostly to stop competitors listening on the radio channels and getting “their” fish) but would have thought that because of this it would be fairly easy to get “extra” items in…
