MIAMI -- Eleven Cubans trying to sail to Florida in a 1959 Buick converted into a tail-finned boat were intercepted at sea by the Coast Guard and will be sent back to their homeland, exile activists said Wednesday.
This was the second attempt for Marciel Basanta Lopez and Luis Grass Rodriguez Last summer they set out for Florida in a 1951 Chevy pickup with pontoons.
On Monday, the men set out again, with four other adults and five children, relatives said. The Coast Guard intercepted the group late Tuesday en route to the Florida Keys, activist Arturo Cobo said.
Cobo said the Coast Guard sank the Buick

I somehow find the mental image of an invading armada of tail-finned, chrome plated barges amusing. I do wish they hadn't sunk the Buick
