BOSTON-The crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Dependable seized more than 1,200 pounds of cocaine and detained two suspected smugglers during an at-sea interdiction approximately 500 miles east of Cape Cod, Mass., Sept. 1, 2013. The crew of the Dependable interdicted the 49-foot sailing vessel Elegance, which claimed Canadian registry, after it was observed riding suspiciously low in the water. The drug shipment is estimated to have a wholesale value of more than $25 million. U.S. Coast Guard video by Petty Officer Adam Stanton.
