Around 2 p.m. Tuesday, a makeshift boat carrying nine Cuban rafters
landed in front of Key Biscayne's multi-story oceanfront Mar Azul
condominium.

As the rafters – all men in their 20s, 30s and 40s - scrambled ashore,
Mar Azul residents came out to take a peek, said Police Chief Charles Press.

One condo resident shot video of the rafters as they walked away from
the boat, which had inner tubes on the sides and what appeared to be an
engine in the back. The words Brayan and Yoanni were painted on the
back. Several were wearing soaked T-shirts, shirts and pants and
appeared to be in good health, Press said.
