Hey Steve .. blah blah blah .............. what a pile of dog ****. Boats
from florida have been visiting Cuba for YEARS.

Tell the US Government to go stick it up their ass. Christ, the federal
government can't even control the border between the US and Mexico!

I don't know what your problem is but if you post your address I will get
you a Cuban T Shirt..

It will say: "The Weather is Here ... Wish you were Beautiful".

Just in case this is more than the ordinary BS, you might want to
consider the following from the Coast Guard site:

Failure to comply with the Coast Guard, Commerce, Treasury, or other
Federal government regulations regarding travel to Cuba will subject
violators to federal criminal prosecution, as well as possible
administrative proceedings by the Department of Commerce and
Department of Treasury. Penalties for violations of these Federal
statutes and regulations can result in fines, imprisonment, vessel
seizure and forfeiture, and denial of future export privileges.

If you do not have all of the appropriate permits and licenses
required by the Department of Commerce and the Department of Treasury,
and you make a voyage into Cuban territorial waters, you are
subjecting yourself to any and all of these sanctions. You are hereby
advised that, in compliance with direction from the President, the
U.S. Coast Guard will be stringently monitoring maritime traffic to
and from Cuba in order to ensure that vessels subject to U.S.
jurisdiction have complied with all applicable licensing requirements,
laws, and regulations, and will take aggressive enforcement actions if
those conditions are not met.
