   cooking meth on an oldje ship
   
   

   He added a pressure gauge and a porthole to the vessel, which was the size of a beer keg and took a week to build, using skills he learnt back in Sydney fixing cars and machines.
   
   Following Igor’s instructions, he took the keg on his boat with the chemicals, and sailed off from LA towards Catalina Island.
   
   “I was the captain of a multimillion-dollar floating drug lab,” Spaliviero writes.
   
   When he reached a secluded spot, he tied a rope around the keg, filled it with the chemicals and lowered it 20m into the water
   
   “Igor had stressed this was the most dangerous part of the process and I was not go near it for at least 20 minutes.”
   
   After several minutes, the reaction vessel exploded and filled the sea with hydrogen gas, ecstasy chemicals and dead fish.
   
   All was lost.
   
   Spaliviero decided that what had gone wrong was the temperature of the water, too warm at 18C.
   
   He got to work and designed another reaction vessel, this time much larger and using pharmaceutical grade steel.
   
   So huge, it could only be loaded on to his boat via a ramp, he drove it to the spot and waited.
   
   This one survived, but he could not haul it back onboard and had to tow it ashore.
   
   On an isolated beach, Spaliviero unbolted the filling port and was rewarded with the sight of drug crystals the size of diamonds.
   
   He swallowed one, 20 minutes later he was “travelling to my planet of euphoria”.
