I thought this was a joke until I saw the picture.

Those are some ingenious Cubans. :shock: I say we let them stay. Maybe their kids will be as equally creative. :D

If you make it to land you can stay, if your caught by the Coast Guard then your ass gets shipped back to Cuba. Odd policy to say the least.
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.

Kind of like survival of the fittest.

For the sheer badassness of this, they should get to stay. Talk about cruising in style.

I could imagine that now, all island nations near the US report a sales increase in Buicks and boating equipment.

They should have painted the Buick gray, not green, if they wanted to escape visual detection. That thing doesn't have much of any radar profile so at least that isn't an issue :P

the same guys tried this a year ago in a 1946 ford pickup. If these guys are skilled enough keep a '46 Ford running, every day for almost six decades, then they are damn good mechanics. The fact that they made a boat out of it, AND a buick a year later, then sailed halfway to Miami both times makes them the fucking A-Team. I say let them in... i'll give them a job fixing molding machines.
