The bandits boarded the brothers' vessel, Ganga, and stole the engine, gas and fishing gear worth $32,000.The $32,000 dollar figure is, I believe, in Trinidad dollars and is a little less than US $5000.
"We just sailed off the Godineau River and was about 1,000 feet from land when we saw a white fiberglass boat with no name approaching us. There were six men on the boat with masks over their faces.
