A motor boat has been seized in north Wales as part of an investigation into a massive cocaine seizure off the southwest coast of Ireland earlier this week.
The seven-metre Sea Breeze is believed to be the vessel that was due to rendezvous with the drugs yacht Makayabella.
More than a tonne of cocaine was seized on the Makayabella off the southwest coast of Ireland on Tuesday morning.
The haul, estimated to be worth between €70m and €80m, is believed to be one of the biggest drugs seizures at sea in Europe this year.
The Makayabella was 200 miles off Mizen Head when the seizure was made earlier this week.
The boat seized at a marina in Pwllheli in north Wales today is being forensically examined.
Officers from the National Crime Agency are also questioning a 47-year-old man.
He was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to import a Class A drug into the UK.
The man is related to one of the suspects being questioned by gardaí.
Three men, aged 70, 35 and 28, believed to be from west Yorkshire in England were arrested on board the Makayabella on Tuesday.
Dozens of bales of cocaine are believed to have been concealed on board the yacht.
