Two men with machine guns stand on the pontoon of the MD-902 Explorer helicopter, and another stands at the door. They are ready to fire, or rappel down into the shrimp boat, if needed.

One Interceptor comes alongside the suspected drug traffickers, and through a loud speaker, demands they halt, and prepare to be boarded.

The suspected drug trafficers are told to stand on the port side of the boat with their hands in clear view on the gunnel.
Guns are trained on them from above, and by the Interceptor on the left.

The second Interceptor pulls up to the stern, guns ready, and two special forces men come aboard to conduct their search.

The Veracruz is in the background.
