A drug running submarine?

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica - Tipped off by three plastic pipes mysteriously skimming the ocean's surface, authorities seized a homemade submarine packed with 3 tons of cocaine off Costa Rica's Pacific coast.
Four men traveled inside the 50-foot wood and fiberglass craft, breathing through the pipes. The craft sailed along at about 7 mph, just six feet beneath the surface.
 
You'd think, with all the money there is in coke, you'd be able to get a better submarine.
 
One of the guys I worked with at Veritas built a 28 footer that three people could travel in. It was good for a depth of 80 feet. He was dot.com multi-millionaire and I have no idea why he kept working.
