Approximately one ton’s worth of marijuana bales were found scatted on the Arroyo Quemada Beach near Santa Barbara, Calif. yesterday. Also found washed ashore, according to NBC News in Los Angeles, was a discarded boat used for drug smuggling.
The 2,000 pounds of neatly wrapped cannabis bales have an approximate street value of $4 million.
Found on board the open, outboard powered 30-foot panga boat, the style of boat commonly used for drug smuggling in the region, were about 20 fuel containers.
At least 20 panga-style boats have been found discarded along the Santa Barbara County coastline over the last few years.
The 50 bales of marijuana were found “partially hidden in bushes near a road leading from the beach,†according to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department.
The Los Angeles Times quoted a release by Santa Barbara County sheriff’s officials which stated:
"Sheriff’s detectives located a significant amount of evidence that was consistent with marijuana smuggling activities, including trash and debris that was strewn about the beach and nearby coastal access trails."
The investigation into the discarded weed continues as officials are testing the drugs and searching the scene for any other significant evidence.

Id be good with a couple pocketful of green . Lol
Wow–they put a ton of cargo in a 30 foot panga? It just goes to show how dangerous the illicit drug trade is and the risks people have to take.
Legalizing weed will stop all of this.
I dont see how they would have made much with that garbage ass brick weed all stemmed and seeded up lol.
There is so much better buds here on the whole west coast and access to it is pretty simple.

Non-mmj, non-connoisseur grade weed, for the rest of us. 70’s type stuff. De-stemming and seeding was sort of an enjoyable ritual, imho.
The stuff still works, and obviously there is stll a market for it if people are willing to put 200% as much weight as the boat was designed for and then sail it on the ocean. The cops estmated the value at 4 million, ok, thats probably exaggerated value a bit but not bad for something that cost maybe 500$ to grow and package.
Again, if it was legal the price of this grade would be like 20$/ounce?
I seen some schwag looking buds at a dispensary go for around 40 – 60 bux. They probably thought it was some mids or something lol
I only love getting feminized seeds to grow that shit.
