You must have been asleep, Van Winkle. This is old and widely circulated
news.
Try some of the sailing sites, like sailinganarchy or latitude38 or...

Nothing about it in SOUNDINGS, Lats and Atts, or WOODENBOAT, all of which I
receive monthly.

This is probably a case of one sailor being detained by the CG (Coastal
Gestapo) on his way home from Cuba. And of course everyone runs with it as
though the CG has formed a blockade, ala the Civil War, to stop errant
boaters on their way to Fidel's haven for the socialistically inclined. I
still say it's BS until you provide some form of verification.
