Captain America Anchors Briefly in Belizean Waters

If you’ve heard that a motor vessel named Captain America, yes, that’s its real name, is in Belizean waters, here’s what’s really happening. The Belize Port Authority says the Mexican-flagged offshore supply ship is making a quick stop here, but not for business. It’s all about meeting Mexican regulations. The law requires the vessel to leave Mexican waters and check in at a foreign port before heading back home. Belize is simply that stop. Once anchored, local authorities will board for routine checks, give the green light, and then it’s back to Mexico. No commercial activity, no cause for concern, just a legal pit stop that’s standard in international maritime practice.
