Got a question for you.

Do you think you can go anywhere on earth in a boat without big
brother watching?

I bet they watch every boat at sea everywhere. I know the whole Gulf
of Mexico is covered with DEA & USCG radar. Every inch of the houston
ship channel is on radar and closed circut TV. In the Gulf they use
big blimp mounted radars. Soon they will deploy unmanned planes that
can stay aloft for months at a time.

Relatively easy here.
The main surveillance is to the Nth and NW with virtually none Sth.
I know of boats that have sailed into some of our not too remote
southern ports and stayed for months without ever seeing a customs
officer.

Yes, no problem at all but please don't spread it about. They might do
something about it.
