I assume the yacht went 12 miles out to international waters but came back too soon? It seems they could have wound down the party and sobered up before heading home. I dunno. Even in the USA they might have been arrested for boating while intoxicated; on small boats alcohol limits apply to the passengers as well as the helmsperson. A year in jail seems pretty excessive though it's not out of the range for alcohol offenses in many states here.
But hmmm...tax free? Rush Limbaugh and the Ayn Rand gang over here would love that. They don't like "big government."
No, the Yacht remained in UAE soil, Dubai Marina is a place inside Dubai, a lovely place. where is the beach, bars and nightclubs. Those guys have organized illegal sex party, alcohol is legal in UAE but under strict law. In fact, once i was trying to buy a beer from a local liquor store, which is the only place where you could purchase alcohol here in Dubai. Upon entering the store, the owner asked me for my liquor license, I said: "I don't have one", he then replied: "well, If you are working in Dubai, you must ask for a permit from your Boss/CEO, a document approval to buy liquor". Although, i could still buy liquor from inside a bar, as they already have license.
The guys whom got arrested were Arabs, and many of them didn't carry a liquor license + it was sex party to begin with.
Well,, if they love the blazing summer heat... Dubai is a fantastic destination.

My first reaction was a total silence I couldn't scream or yell, I was 'calm as a cucumber'. 5 seconds, only 5 seconds all it took me to witness a beautiful Angel, whom was sent down from heaven by God.
I began to examine the evidence of what i saw was a truly an Angel, or was just a figment of my own imagination.
Sleep paralysis
It's a fairly well-understood phenomena. It has all of the symptoms you mention. The same thing happened to me once when I was a kid. At the time, I chalked it up to "a dream that I only partially woke up from". After learning more about the world, I realized this was what happened.
Yes, I guess it was just a classical case of 'sleep paralysis', although it felt real, in a manner of speaking... Anyhow, my mind is clearer now.
