Oh Sure...Rub it in...first my buddy in Panama with the fish pics, and now you with the surf report...Did I mention I am in Wilmington N.C. where a wave over 3 feet hasn't been sighted since MAY I haven't surfed since then either

Glad someone is getting some though

Thanks brother,

Yea, cool part though is basic construction can begin as soon as the rainy season stops even before the road finishes. These guys actually got a LOT done considering they did not start until mid August.

I might have to make some trips up your way for a while, until my VISA work is done because right now 30days is all I can stay at one time until the paperwork and red tape is finished.

Might have to come up to your area and also check in with Brandon and that crazy guy with three cell phones and a water filled Panga who's name slips me....local guy...DAMN forgot. He keeps his panga over in the bay and used to drink it up with Brandon if I remember correctly.

Curtis

p.s. Get some more photo's up man!!

Hey Shoe,

the rain finally slowed down and we are heading down on January 9th to get some stuff together. Hopefully the "garage/studio" will get done by march and I will be there by April with any luck.

Going down to work on the visa, plot up about 15 acres into lots, and set up the first building with contractor so I can get the HELL DOWN THERE...

Hope to have the basic internet site for our corporation set up just after the trip as well so you guys can check out the vision of this project.

My buddy Chad is having Tony Pena down at the end of January to do an article with Marlin Magazine, will let everyone know when that comes out.

He just picked up a second boat and now has a 25 center and 29 center console.

Here's a couple of pics he just sent me from about two weeks ago I think...

Enjoy

And just today as my windshield wipers were getting frozen to the windshield for the second time in 15 minutes, I said to myself "why do I live here again?"

I look at pictures like this and can't come up with an answer.

Thanks for giving us something to dream about dude!
