The helicopter was off loaded in Pohnpei and hidden in a storeage yard next to the airport under wraps. My boat was only alongside the wharf for a short time, however according to the crew on the boat Hansens instructed them to push the wreck over the side but the fish master refused and took the wreck to Pohnpei. Hansens had no choice and it was shipped to Majuro (according to my mechanic anyway) It was loaded into a container and shipped to Majuro (opposite direction from Guam). The whole deal is a bit fishy. The Embassy had someone down the port looking for the helicopter and he boarded the fishing boat before it sailed.
Everyone seems to be playing it close. An FOI might open the box if anyone was that interested.
