The so-called 'narco-subs' phenomenon is on the increase. Last year there was a bumper crop with 37 incidents reported and this year is not far behind. If we assume a 20% intercept rate, which is generous, then we can extrapolate this to guess that the master boat builder in question has probably built around 30 nearly identical boats. That's a substantial chunk of the roughly 900 narco-subs that I estimate have been built over the years.
