Dragon immediately launched her sea boats and, following a search of the dhow by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines boarding team, the drugs were found hidden in the vessel.
Boarding officer Lt Laurens Williams said: “The inventiveness of the drug runners necessitates a detailed search to ensure that we do not miss any potential hiding places. My team have gained significant experience and skills over the last four seizures and the success today is a reward for the hours of training that have been invested by all in ensuring that these operations are conducted successfully.”
