John,

>>"In a conversation with a local a week ago, he told me that the boat was already in position"

Did the local happen to mention exactly where the boat was? I was at Mhoon Landing, I had thought it was mentioned that the boat was going to be at the same site Splash was located. If it's going to be there, it's not there yet, if it's going to be somewhere else, it may be already be in position.
