A yacht docked in Nantucket Harbor was searched Tuesday by authorities who found guns, drugs and prostitutes on board the luxury vessel, according to a report.
The investigation into the Jess Conn, a 70-foot motor yacht registered in the Cayman Islands, has so far led to at least one arrest, the Nantucket Current reports.
The shocking discovery at the posh Massachusetts island harbor was made after a woman was removed from a yacht for a “health check” Tuesday morning, Harbormaster Sheila Lucey told the publication.

He was taken to an ambulance on the beach, although it is not clear why he needed medical attention.
Nantucket Police, along with the Coast Guard, began an investigation involving the vessel shortly thereafter.
Sources told the Current that authorities found prostitutes, drugs, guns and other contraband during the search of Jess Conn.
Before arriving in Nantucket on Aug. 23, the yacht docked in Newport, Rhode Island, the report said.

Back in May, the Jess Conn ran aground in Florida — though it didn’t sustain much damage.
Brant Point Coast Guard Station executive petty officer Jeff Wecal confirmed that his crew is assisting the Nantucket Police Department in its investigation.
Nantucket Police Lt. Angus MacVicar declined to provide further information about the investigation to Arus.
“Yes, we are currently working on the case involved and as a result cannot comment on the details,” he told the outlet.
