This hasnt happened of late, but 10 to 12 yrs ago it was called winning the Belize Lottery. A few times a year a poor boat owner would all of a sudden have a new boat, a new house. All from found floaters full of usually cocaine, but sometimes pot. The last incident I remember was about 7 yrs ago. It was big news, the out of country folks, bad guys. were tracking down the innocent folks that happened upon these riches, a few ended up dead. This was a huge dump, the stuff was turning up everwhere. A good friend of mine was out fishing inbetween Caye Caulker and Caye Chaple and came right up on one. Oh yes, he knew exactly what it was, he knew exactly how to become rich over it, been here for about 20 yrs and had the right connections. He also had his 3 children with him and let the winning lottery float on by. The end of this last inncident was posted on the message board by a man from San Pedro. He lived up north, had a floater wash up on his beach, so afraid by the murders he did not touch it and called the police. They came and tore it open and it was full of cash, not drugs but good old U.S. cash.
