Boat with $2 million in marijuana on board washes ashore in Palm Beach

PALM BEACH — Police say they have discovered 80 to 100 bricks of marijuana on board a boat that washed ashore Wednesday morning across from the Palm Beach Country Club on the island's north end, the Palm Beach Post reports.

The boat was spotted at about 6:30 a.m. by firefighters on a passing fire truck, said Palm Beach Police spokesman Fred Hess.

When police arrived, they found a 22-foot fishing boat and tracks heading off in the sand.

Police found the drugs bundled on the boat. Hess estimated each bundle to be worth $20,000, meaning the entire haul could have an estimated street value of up to $2 million
