WESTMORELAND, Jamaica — Members of the Narcotics Division on Tuesday seized a grey 30-feet vessel fitted with two Yamaha 250 HP engines with the serial numbers erased in Belmont district, Westmoreland.

The Narcotics Police are now appealing to anyone who may have information regarding this boat to contact them at 923 5729, 119, 311 or the nearest police station.
