9 Cubans were intercepted attempting to cross over to the USA in a 1959 Buick which had been converted into a pontoon boat. So yes, you can now truly say that old Buicks are boats.
The Cubans will be sent back to Cuba, as they did not reach US shores. This same group of Cubans attempted to float a 51 Chevy pickup over last July, but were intercepted.
Now, I might be way off base, but if youre living in Cuba, and you can afford not one but 2 vehicles (broken or otherwise), and you’re smart enough to convert them into boats, then you probably aren’t too bad off in Cuba.
