ST. EUSTATIUS--The Caribbean Netherlands Coast Guard encountered a boat with four undocumented persons during a regular patrol in the waters around St. Eustatius on Thursday, December 30, 2022.
As the persons onboard the boat did not have any documentation, but indicated that they lived in St. Maarten, they were taken to St. Maarten, where they were handed over to the Immigration authorities to continue the investigation.
The boat is currently moored at Charles A. Woodley Pier in Statia. It will be investigated whether the vessel is registered in St. Maarten or elsewhere.
