    Maybe he should've been watching where he was going, instead of watching the light.... :p

    There have been stealth craft as long as there have been smugglers, and that may be what was going on here. Nearly deserted coast, just a couple buildings below the cliffs, some fog, not much wind - pretty much made to order for a smuggling drop. Some problem with the tides possibly? It's not like you can just hang around and wait for the next one to carry you off if you are smuggling.

    It does look like a "smugglers cove". carrying a fair amount of sail, trying to claw off in a puff of sea breeze? A smuggler can't really afford to drop anchor and be patient . . .

    Here smugglers wooden shoes, if custom officers followed the track than they were going in the wrong direction . . . :eek:

    * note the heel clone under the front end and a front clone under the rear end of these wooden shoes
    Cheers,
